It was all smiles at the African Bar, Oriental Hotel, venue of this week’s Industry Nite which hosted Alapomeji Records boss 9ice as he reunited with long-time friends and crew mates ID Cabasa, Lord of Ajasa and others.

9ice who used the opportunity to celebrate his birthday was seen discussing and sharing jokes with long-time friend, collaborator and producer ID Cabasa in one of the backstage rooms. Cabasa who heads CODED Tunes played a major part in producing 9ice’s first two albums – ‘Certificate’ and ‘Gongo Aso’.

After ‘Gongo Aso’ was released 2008, Cabasa gradually played lesser roles in 9ice’s music and eventually became a guest producer on subsequent albums ‘Tradition’ and ‘Versus’. Reports say 9ice also alienated himself from former CODED Tunes allies including 2Phat.

At Industry Nite on Wednesday January 18, 9ice also met up with long-time friends such as rapper Lord of Ajasa and pop act Jah Bless and even called both artistes on stage to perform ‘Le fenu so’ and ‘Pass me the ganja’ respectively.

Other acts that performed at the event are Alapomeji acts Seriki and Snow, as well as ex-Alapomeji acts Ajayi Brothers. Others are Tiwa Savage, Vector, DJ Jimmy JATT, JJC, Coded Tunes rapper oLamide, Dammy Krane and others. Popular faces that attended include Mo’Hits boss Don Jazzy, Dr SID, Terry G, Modenine, Sexy Steel and others.

Mike Dean, Manny Fresh, Hit Boy SC, Dbanj & Pusha-T

Where has Dbanj been over the past few weeks?

Well he’s been working on his video for Oliver Twist, and hasn’t been in the country.

It looks like he was able to get a good number of international acts together to join him in the Oliver Twist video. From what we can spot we’re guessing Kanye West, Will.I.Am, Big Sean, Manny Fresh, Pusha T, Hit Boy, SC & Mike Dean will all make appearances in the video. Oh yeah we also heard Noni Zondi is supposed to make an appearance too… We def wont mind if that’s true.

Can’t wait. Check out some pics

You are all revolutionaries. Our brothers and sisters at home are doing the same thing, staying days and night on the streets, some without food and drink. Most are ready to die for Nigeria to change because it is really that bad.

Let us keep informing people, visit CNN, NY1, or the local stations in your states, send them pictures and videos of what is happening in Nigeria, New York, London, Houston , Dallas and other states with Nigerians protesting.

Nigeria must change, enough is truly enough. If we do not fight against this system now, our children’s children will grow up under the same condition or worse in Nigeria.

This is much deeper than fuel subsidy, we demand a Government that will develop the country so we are developed world and not keep “developing”

I am very proud of the Nigerian youths that are working and taking this matter into their own hand to fight this system.

Our fight continues..

Occupy Nigeria New York:
Venue: United Nations, New York
Address:1st Avenue between 45st & 46 st Street, NY, NY
Date: Saturday January 14th, 2012
Time: 12 noon- 3pm

Come and join Banky W, Adewale Ayuba, Sahara Reporters and others.

We demand;
1. That the Nigerian government revert to the old prices.
2. That the government institute a panel of inquiry that includes representatives of Labour, Civil society, professional bodies etc to investigate the practices of petroleum products importation, distribution and payments over the past 13 years.
3. That the report of this inquiry should form a basis for the prosecution of those individuals, companies and their collaborators who have defrauded the country through sharp practices associated with importation of petroleum products.
4. That the government ensures the four Nigerian refineries operate at installed capacities within the next 12months.
5. That the government unveil a Petrol Production and Distribution (PPD) policy that is aimed at 100% local production of petroleum products within the next 12-36months.
6. That the government audit and make public the Nigerian daily crude oil production, royalties paid by foreign oil companies, accurate local consumption inventory rather than the conflicting numbers released by various government agencies.
7. That corruption in the oil sector and other areas should be confronted and perpetrators brought to book. The poor masses should not be made to pay for the incompetence and corruption of government officials.
8. That the government should not underestimate the people’s ability and resolve to protest the continuous rape of the country by friends and cronies of government.
Join us as we express solidarity with our people at home.
