2FACE IDIBIA OPENS MULTI-MILLION BOUTIQUE FOR FIANCEE,ANNIE MACAULAY + ENGAGEMENT RING COSTS N4.5 MILLION

In what some have dubbed the triumph of love, Annie Macaulay was filled with tears of joy on Tuesday night in Lagos when Innocent Idibia popularly known as Tuface finally proposed to her.

It was a fitting climax for an unsteady romance between the rising Nollywood actress cum model and her R&B super star lover who has been with her for over 13 years.

Innocent Idibia chose the romantic night of Valentine’s Day (February 14) to pop the million dollar question at posh Victoria Island-based hangout, Club 10, owned by Ex-Super Eagles captain, JayJay Okocha.

At the event which was witnessed by a small crowd that included a few friends as well as other revellers, the musician presented a specially made ring which it was learnt cost N4.5 million Naira to his lover.

The loverbirds have since made their engagement public with their pictures littering the social media.

2face has already started introducing Annie afresh as,”Meet my wife,the woman of my dreams”.

And from what we were told,they would likely tie the knot this year.

Further findings revealed that 2face has surprised Annie with a multi-million naira boutique stocked with all you can think of in Ikota Shopping Complex.

According to source,2face sent Annie shopping to America in December and when she came back he surprised her with the keys of the boutique and told her he was proud of her.

They have named the boutique,Forever Young and plan on opening it In March.

According to a new and yet unconfirmed report,circulating round the blogsville says the talented musician has branched out an olive leaf to his two baby mamas, Pero Adeniyi and Sumbo Ajaba, who lost out in the battle for his soul.

The report says he has offered each of the two women a sum of N10 million, a house in a choice area, and a car of their choice.

According to the report, Tuface who is currently recording his next album in LA, is making the moves quietly through a confidant to avoid the media from feasting on it.

More on this later.

MESSY LOVE LIFE OF 2FACE IDIBIA + HOW HE TURN OVER A NEW LEAF

 

2face is arguably one of the best singers in Africa and at the same time,the most controversial artist,especially when it has to do with women.

Over the years, 2face,who is a self-confessed womaniser has been linked romantically with many ladies,among them were Nollywood actress,Caroline Ekanem-Danjuma, Nkechi Okoli and ex-Miss Nigeria,Vien Tetsola.

2face was recently reported to be in a romance with Dr.Ojia Ademolekun,an Abuja based medical practitioner and Annie’s best friend.

Dr. Orjia was also rumoured to be Timi Dakolo’s ex-girlfriend. 2face was also said to be in a guarded romance with Queen Ure, the estranged lover of Soul E.

But three women have remained a constant feature throughout the career of the Benue State-born crooner.

Annie Macaulay

Since that stunning lover-girl role she played in 2face’s African Queen video, Annie Macaulay caught the attention of the entertainment industry.

Everyone wanted to know who the damsel on the power bike with 2Face was, especially when reports hit the streets that these two were actually dating. But later events was to change a lot of things as two other separate women (Pero Adeniyi and Sumbo Ajaba)came into the picture. And before Annie could say 2, both ladies were totting 2face’s babies almost shutting the door in Annie’s face.

Pero Adeniyi

Pero’s relationship with 2face dates back to 2005,shortly after the singer parted ways with Annie Macauley.

According to reports, after being attacked by robbers in his Festac home, Idibia was injured and traumatised.

While on admission at the hospital, ladies trooped in to visit and wish him well.Pero was said to be one of the lot and a relationship kicked off almost immediately.

The romance shifted from Pero to a banker,Sumbo Ajaba,after irreconciliable differences between them.Not quite long after a sizzling romance with Sumbo,2face left her in a dramatic way and since became a single father to his five children from the three mistresses.

2face had earlier said in an interview he granted months back that he has moved on and no longer had any sexual relationship with his three mistresses since he was not legally married to them.

But it came as a surprise to many when news broke some weeks back that 2face is expecting his sixth child from Pero, the mother to two of his children. The big question on everybody's lips then was how come,considering the fact that Tu Face had allegedly told friends that his relationship with Pero has no future for both of them, a story Pero also corroborated in an interview she granted a soft sell magazine.

But findings revealed that 2face and Pero have been meeting secretly.An example of such secret meeting was in July,2011 at the BET Award in the US where 2face went to receive an award jointly won with D’Banj.The crooner was said to have preferred to stay at Pero’s apartment in the States instead of being lodged in a hotel.Their meeting was believed to have resulted to the pregnancy.

With this development, many thought Pero has fought her way back to 2face’s life but their hopes were dashed when2face took the bull by the horns and proposed to his long-term girlfriend and mother of one of his children (daughter – Isabella), Annie Macaulay at Jay Jay Okocha’s Club 10 in Victoria Island, Lagos on Valentine’s day.

Expectedly, the incident has elicited mixed reactions from fans and critics, on Facebook and Twitter – and elsewhere.

Many criticized his actions saying the proposal to another woman at a club was insensitive when he had another woman pregnant with his third child.But the serial womanizer and music star remains unperturbed with people's opinions..

In post on his facebbok page,2face wrote; I know say my people wan hear the CONFIRM gist !!! Unto say me sef wan move to the next level.We all know that he who finds a wife has found a good thing.

I am moving forward ma people… I wanna be with Annie for the rest of my life.Abi how una take see am ?

We gathered that the reason he took the bold step was because pressure had been piled on him by his mother since news broke few weeks ago that he was expecting a sixth child from mistress,Pero , to find a wife and settle down.

With his latest move, insiders close to the music sensation revealed that the fates of his two mistresses, Pero Adeniyi and Sumbo Ajaba who both have between them four kids for him, has been sealed.

In a related news,findings revealed that the talented musician left the shores of Nigeria for the United States on Wednesday night in a manner that was shrouded in mystery.

Close source are insinuating that Tuface jets to US to be at the side of his expectant baby mama, Pero Adeniyi, who is due to deliver the musician’s third child any moment from now.

But 2face’s publicist, Bayo Omisore, denied the claim,he said; is gone to America to finish the recording of his new album

2FACE OPENS UP ON HIS RATHER COMPLICATED LOVE LIFE + POCKET OVER A MILLION DOLLAR FOR HIS ENDORSEMENT DEAL WITH AIRTEL

Celebrated African pop singer 2face Idibia is arguably one of the most popular artistes on the African music scene. 2baba came into African limelight when he released his hit song, African Queen and ever since then, he has been a sought after musician.

Tuface is unmarried with 5 children from different women, ranging from Sunmbo Ajaba (two boys) to Pero Adeniyi (a boy and a girl) and Annie Macaulay (a girl).

In a recent interview with EE, 2face opened up on his rather complicated love life.

"I didn't get this from my father. My father is not a womaniser. That I know. I have never caught my father with another woman. He is very faithful to my mother. I am also not a womanizer. Yes it happens that I have more women in my life. It is the price I have to pay for being a star. I didn't plan to have more than one woman in my life. I didn't plan my life to be the way it is now but no regrets. I love my kids. Right now, I have three women in my life who have five kids for me (and expecting a 6th one) and I sincerely don't know how I'm able to cope with three women. Fela had over two dozen wives but I'm not Fela. I can never be another Fela. I have three women but I'm saying a big NO to Fela's kind of polygamy. I don't even know what these women see me (Oh yeah, Tuface? lol). I used to look into the mirror sometimes and wonder it is that they see in me."

In a related news,we gathered that the talented musician was paid over a million dollar for his endorsement deal with Airtel,one of the three top communications companies in Nigeria.

PERO ADENIYI PREGNANT WITH 2FACE IDIBIA's 6TH CHILD!

Baby number six is on the way for pop icon 2face Idibia.

NET sources say Idibia’s long-time girlfriend and mother of two of his five children Pero Adeniyi is heavily pregnant and according to his publicist Bayo Omisore, she will put to bed in March 2012.

‘Yes it’s true, she is pregnant. A statement has already been released’, Publicist, Bayo Omisore told NET. The statement was not immediately available to us.

Inside sources say Ms Adeniyi is seven months gone already, and she had stayed away from public events, careful not to let the cat out of the bag until she gives birth.

The daughter off POATSON boss Jide Adeniyi, who was married to Tunde Borokini (they have since been divorced), already has two children for Idibia – Rose and Justin. Idibia also has kids from Sunmbo Ajaba (2) and Annie Macauley (1)

‘Children are a gift from God and I’m glad to have this bundle of joy’, 2face was quoted as saying.

If you recall, six months ago, 2face had travelled to the US to attend the BET Awards where he won the award for ‘Best International Act for Africa’ alongside pop singer D’banj. Pero, we learn was also in the US at that time. ‘They see often when he’s in America; he even stays in her crib sometimes‘ an insider told us today.

2face is currently in Nigeria, writing and recording songs for a forthcoming release, his publicist tells NET.

Idibia’s relationship with Ms Adeniyi, rocky at best, is as interesting, as it is fascinating, with those close to them saying it’s a huge surprise they’re still making babies together ‘after all the fights’.

WE'RE NOT SIGNED TO KONVICT' - 2FACE AND WIZKID DENY AKON SIGNING

Nigerian pop stars 2face Idibia and Wizkid have denied being signed to Senegalese-American singer Akon’s Konvict/Kon Live record label, stating the news is downright false even though there is a relationship between the parties.

It was earlier reported that Akon had signed the pop singers as representatives to his Konvict Label, after Akon told reporters in Nigeria that he had signed the acts and was looking forward to working with them.

‘In Nigeria with my brothers about to take over Africa with @2faceidibia and @wizkidayo big up to P-square’, @Akon tweeted.

But Now Muzik, 2face’s management company says that 2face hasn’t been signed but has a ‘fantastic working relationship with Konvict/Kon Live’. ‘People must have misinterpreted the news, 2face is however Konvict family’, NM CEO Efe Omorogbe said.

Idibia’s publicist Bayo Omisore, told NET ‘2face has not been signed onto Konvict Music. There are only discussions going on. The agreement we have so far is word of mouth. Until documents are seen, agreed on and signed 2face isn’t signed’.

In similar fashion, Wizkid’s management have also denied the supposed signing; clearly stating that the only label the young singer is signed to is EME. ‘Hey, No Wizkid isn’t signed to any label but Empire Mates Entertainment’, Osagie Osarenkhoe, told us in response to an SMS enquiry .

Attempts to reach Psquare or their reps proved abortive.

Not one is yet sure why Akon went ahead to announce the signings. Enquiries sent to his official E-mail address have not been replied.

A similar instance had happened years back when news of Akon signing 2face’s former band mate Faze surfaced. Faze had told reporters in Lagos he’d been signed on Akon’s Konvict. Akon initially denied, but later, he issued a video release identifying with ‘Faze my home boy’ and assuring fans of a working relationship. The Konvict/Faze deal has, however, yet to see the light of day

2FACE's MANAGER ROBBED AT GUN POINT

Efe Omorogbe, Now Muzik boss and manager to African pop act 2face Idibia was recently robbed of his car – a BMW X3 SUV (Grey BMW X3. Reg number: KR 526 EKY. Engine no: WBXPA73464WC36602

Chasis no: (same as engine number) and other valuables by gunmen on Monday night, December 5, 2011.

Omorogbe, a veteran writer and talent manager says he was driving back home along Ota road, when a vehicle overtook his and in a sudden twist another vehicle parked very close beside him and then, about eight men alighted from both vehicles and commanded him to come out  from his car.

‘I immediately came out of my car and was asked to get into the back seat. Four men got in with me’, Omorogbe told Nigerian Entertainment Today in a telephone conversation.

He was then commanded to stay face down so as not to see where they (the robbers) were driving to. ‘They asked me to tell them where the security key in the car was but I told them there wasn’t one. They didn’t believe me at first and hit me several times. They even threatened to kill me if the car stopped abruptly’, Omorogbe narrated.

After driving for about 20 minutes, they finally let him out not before stripping him of his shirt, trousers, wristwatch, wedding ring and shoes and then asked him to run into the bushes.

He came out several minutes later and saw a thousand Naira on the floor (Efe strongly suggests the robbers must have dropped it for him), walked to a nearby residence where he met someone who gave him clothes to wear and drove him to the police station near Ota Farms.

‘My wife drove down there and picked me up. They stole everything; my laptop, iPad, wallet, reading glasses, internet modem’, says Omorogbe .

‘I’m happy I’m alive’, Omorogbe says about the incidence. And when asked if it had been a deliberate robbery attempt on him, he responded by saying ‘No, I don’t think so, it could have been anybody’.

ASABA GIRLS HOLD 2FACE IDIBIA HOSTAGE AFTER SHOW

Asaba girls, who thronged to watch a show by stand-up comedian, AY, live at the Grand Hotel, Asaba, the Delta State capital, on Saturday held music star, Tuface Idibia, hostage when they openly struggled over whom to embrace him.

It took furious work by security agents who were on hand to rescue him from the riotous girls.

TN observed that the much awaited AY live show in Asaba left thousands of its residents rolling over with laughter, including the state governor, Emmanuel Uduaghan, with the ladies adding their own twist to the general fun.

An eyewitness said that amidst standing ovation, Tuface had come on stage and he was accompanied with loud shouts from the Asaba female admirers who called him the ‘greatest’.

But it was when he tried to leave the stage that the whole hullabaloo started. The girls were said to have herded him into a tight corner with several of them rushing to embrace him, but security agents had to fight them off and shepherd the music star to safety.

Confirming the story, Tuface said the girls obviously admired him and his work, adding that all of them said they would marry him. He, however, gave God the glory for giving him the inspiration and love from his admirers....

Guess its a very hard hustle out there, call it survival of the fittest, they all want to marry 2face

2FACE RESCUES INJURED POLICEMAN

2face Idibia is in the news again but this time around he isn’t receiving any awards or featuring on international talk shows or headlining any event. The singer who is credited to singing one of the biggest songs to come out of Africa ‘African Queen’ recently played the role of a ‘Good Samaritan’ as he reportedly saved the life of a Police Officer who had been shot.

The story goes that 2face and a close friend, event manager Matthew Ohio at about 3AM left the Nu-Grotto located at 217 Etim Inyang Crescent, Victoria Island and were heading to the Southern Sun Hotel in Ikoyi, driving in the singer’s Ranger Rover Sport through Muri Okunola Street when they came across a man lying down by the roadside.

Ohio who was driving says the pair decided to stop and find out what was wrong with the man. Upon getting closer, they discovered it was a police man and that he had been shot three times by – once in the hand, in the stomach and in the leg. ‘He kept saying we should help him, he looked like he was in a lot of pain’, Ohio who is executive producer of Industry Nite, the weekly event held at the Oriental Hotel in Lagos told Nigerian Entertainment Today in a telephone conversation.

It is believed that the policeman who identified himself as Corporal Ganiu had been shot just five minutes before Idibia and Ohio drove by. Ohio tells us that they had been alerted by security guards at Nu-Grotto but they ignored the warnings.

2face and Matthew then carried the bleeding policeman into the back seat of their vehicle and rushed him to the Reddington Hospital located at 12 Idowu Martins Street, Victoria Island (next to Mega Plaza) to receive treatment. The hospital staff were said to have been hesitant to attend to the victim until they recognized 2face who served as a guarantor to the officer. It can be recalled that 2face had also been rushed to the same hospital back in October 2007 when he was shot by robbers. ‘I have a card here too o’, 2face was said to have told the hospital staff.

‘The story is quite true’, says Don T, exec at 2face’s management Now Muzik. ‘2face took him to Reddington which is his official hospital’. However, Don T could not confirm as at the time of this report if 2face settled the medical bills even though ‘it’s quite possible he did’.

We’re told Corporal Ganiu has been transferred to the Military Hospital, Awolowo Rd, Ikoyi to receive further treatment and his health condition is said to be stable.

2face is sure not new to robbery attacks and hospitals as he has also had his fair share of horrific episodes. On January 12, 2005, he was attacked by unsuspected robbers at his residence in Festac Town, Lagos and in October 2007, he was also robbed and shot while returning home from the Muritala Mohammed International airport after attending the MOBO awards in London, where he was named best African act.

"I REALIZED I'D BEEN SHOT"-TUFACE IDIBIA

The difference between life and death is so slim.One minute you are gone.In Nigeria,life can be so cheap. Before you  know it,someone is aiming his gun at you and asking you surrender everything on you.At times,he doesn’t even give you enough time to comply.In one moment of madness,he pulls the trigger and the bullet hits you gboooa! I have been shot and I don’t like talking about it.It was just like a flash.

This guy comes to the car,he tries to open the car but the door is locked,and before we could even realize what is going on, the guy brought out his gun and just shot: He shot the glass and I was sitting on the passenger side on the front seat. So the bullet caught me on my left thigh.Just like that.

I didn’t even know the bullet was in me already.I thought it was a shattered glass that touched my leg, I didn’t know it was a bullet. It was when I opened the door and I started running that I started feeling pains in my leg.And then I touched my leg and I saw pure blood.

That was when I realized I was shot. In the heat of the moment, that adrenalin was pumping and you weren’t feeling anything at that time. I just came from London that evening. So I was just coming from the airport and going home.

I was stopped actually.I met a small traffic jam at Cele Bus Stop on the way to Festac. So we were just slowing down when the guy just came out.Then he tried to open the door but the door was locked.I don’t know whether the guy knew me. I don’t think so.I think it was one of these normal robberies in a hold up.

He just said:” Open the door! Open the door!” We were looking him with shock,then the next thing he pulled out a gun and shot.All these happened within 10 seconds.Some of the pellets cut my friend’s hand. In the confusion,everybody took off on hearing the gunshot.Some people even came out of their cars and fled forsafety. Luckily, we quickly stopped a bus and the guy was nice enough to stop.I guess because of the commotion, the robbers too panicked and fled.

I was first taken to Cedar hospital in Festac where they gave me first aid treatment.And then,Reddington ambulance came and took me from there. Gunshot is like having a hot substance inside your body.It peppers.I was just thanking God.I imagined what could have happened if I had been shot in the face or in the chest.This happened in 2007.

Earlier,on January 2004,I had been attacked by armed robbers.It was another close shave.They had to break the wall to enter my house. They beat the hell out of me that day. They were beating me and asking “Where is the master of this house?” I told them:” My master had travelled”.They didn’t know I was the master of the house.They were just hitting me with a stick.They almost broke my neck.At the hospital,I was made to wear a neck brace for over a month.

They took away my money,jewelry and some other stuff. All these experiences have taught me that life is so precious,yet precarious.Anything can happen in any second.So, make the most of your time.It was by the grace of God that I survived that gunshot.What if his hand had gone a bit higher to hit my head or my chest? It would have been a different story.

It’s so sad that we live in a country where there is insecurity. In Nigeria,a trailer would park where it is not supposed to park and you just run into it and it’s all over. That was what happened to the rapper Dagrin. These are the words of Innocent Ujah Idibia popularly known as 2face, narrating his ordeal in the hands of armed robbers. He also laments on the seemingly rising insecurity in the country.

Tuface Idibia didn't give any engagement ring to any woman

I was asked to pass a message o...so don't shoot the messager. Contrary to popular reports, Tuface didn't give any ring, diamond or otherwise, to any woman...dead or alive...(that's how I was asked to write it..:-)). Tuface is not engaged to anyone and has no such plans at the moment. He continues to be a great dad and that's enough for him.

'They' also said - any tweet, fb message, bb broadcast, from any woman claiming to be engaged to the music star should be disregarded. When Tuface gets engaged, he will make the announcement himself. - But don't hold your breath.

TUFACE IDIBIA OPENS UP ON THE SUCESS STORY OF HIS HIT TRACK AFRICAN QUEEN + WHY HE LEFT KENNIS MUSIC

Every artiste has a defining song.For Nigeria’s hip-pop king Tuface whose real name is Innocent Idibia,global recognition and artistic success came by the way of African Queen, a love song in praise of the beauty of the African woman. Tuface might have meant African Queen for a particular woman but today,he is entangled in a love triangle involving not less than three African Queens who have given him five children. It is not a situation that Tuface finds funny but he cannot help it.

In a recent interview,Tuface opens up on Nigerian Hip-pop,why he left Kennis Music and the success story of his song African Queen. He said; African Queen is one of the most successful songs outside Africa so far.

I can say it was a song that really made me as an artiste. It was written by me and Blackface. It was just a desire to do a love song to show respect and love for the African woman.That’s how it came up. We wrote the lyrics and melody together. I and Blackface wrote the first and second verse. But I wrote the last part of it which says: ”you know what I am feeling in my soul.” He is not claiming he owns the song.He is not claiming he wrote the song only by himself.

People are just trying to be mischievous by saying that Blackface owned that song. That’s just all. He has the right to the song as well, so I was not surprised he did his own version. Plantation Boys is not totally dead.I believe one day we are still going to come together as a group.It’s still going to happen.We are still going to come together in future.We have done it before,we are still going to do it again.

After Face to Face,the next album was Grass to Grace.There you found me singing a chorus line: Hey brother hey…. As you see me so…” It was also a success.It was huge. From there I left Kenny’s Music to start Hypertek Entertainment,my own label. I had to grow.I am not going to be under a label forever. I had to grow on my own as well. My contract expired and I had to go.

Kenny knew I had this Hypertek thing on my mind and he encouraged me and that’s what I am doing. Hypertek is owned by a guy and a guy. I am the CEO of Hypertek Entertainment.And I am the only artiste on my label for now.But it’s more like an entertainment company for now.

We do shows,we do events,we produce events,we produce end-of-year parties.In the the beginning,I was not ready for the record label aspect. But now I am ready.I am about to sign some new artistes on the label. People talk about Kenny’s Music buying me this and that while I was on that label.

Yes,It’s true but one thing most artistes don’t understand about a record label is that they buy you house, they buy you a car but it’s all debt.You are still going to pay back. For me,I didn’t do that kind of thing. I Just wanted to work,my money is my money. They fulfill their contract,I fulfill mine.And that’s it.Everything I owned under Kenny’s Music,I actually paid for it. I owned it.

Asked about Nigerian hip-pop,he said When it comes to Nigerian music of today, I am just going to call two names,because I don’t want to involve myself in controversy.If I start reeling names,I would offend a lot of people who would expect me to name them as among my favourites.But I am just going to call two names.Asha and MI.MI is amazing.

He is deep,intellectually talented.He is got it all.I first met MI at one show and I said Wow! Who is this guy? And that was it.He is going to go really far.It is not for me to discuss the originality of his rap. These days,when you start talking about originality,you can’t really lay claim to any original thing.Everything has already been done.But what I can say is that he is talented.He knows his onions.

He’s intelligent.Same with Asha.She is not forcing it.She does it effortlessly.And then she has depth. She doesn’t just want to sell S*x.Most of the females artistes these days,they just want to sell s*x. The first time I heard her sing,I was amazed.I shouted: Who is this? The song I first heard was Eiye adaba.I was blown away.

Then I heard Jailer.I am talking to you Jailer… I said.” Wow,who is this? And that was before the album even came out. The second album is also brilliant.My baby is gone,gone,gone. I think the Nigerian music scene is exploding.People are coming up strong.

Tuface Idibia Hooked In Recording Contract Mess

Not minding his globetrotting these days, for both music business and personal enjoyment this may not be the best of time for Benue State born, pop star, Tuface Uja Idibia as he is currently battling alleged breach of contract of which he is being accused by a Lagos based music marketer, Muritala Alade Bamgbola, the CEO Happy Boys Entertainment of duping him millions of naira in pretence of recording an album for him 3 years ago.  

Tuface's palava according to the marketer started like a gentle man's agreement when the two agreed to work together for the distribution of Tuface's Unstoppable album. According to Bamgbola's counsel, James Ononiwu of White Dove Solicitors, his Muritala client would like to use this opportunity to set the records straight as there are several issues to be trashed out before Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court, Lagos.



Ononiwu also said that this became necessary when his client stumbled on articles Tuface's new manager wrote on the internet concerning the artiste's contract. To buttress his point, the lawyer showed the MOU his client had with Tuface's company Hypertek. “My client gave tuface #25 million naira cash with a post dated cheque of #5 million naira on June 12,2008 to obtain the marketing rights of the album, Unstoppable,and as sole distributor in Nigeria and West Africa. It was to be a two years contract.

His manager, Nazzy was with him then. My client gave Tuface and Hypertek that much because Tuface claimed to have done a collabo with American musician, R.Kelly but R.Kelly was in the country twice and Tuface was nowhere to be found. When you call Tuface, he would tell you that he is in the United States with R.Kelly but in an interview with JAJ on Silverbird TV, R.Kelly said he had never met Tuface except when they did the Airtel promo.

The current manager of Tuface was not present at the time the money was given to Tuface and Hypertek. When D'Banj said he sang with Snoop Doggy Dog, we all saw it. So, why are we not seeing or hearing the collabo Tuface did with R.Kelly According to the Lagos lawyer added; Tuface sold to us an album with 16 songs in 2008,but half way in 2009,he released another one, Unstoppable International with the same songs.He has the listening party of Unstoppable International on May29; 2010. No artiste has been paid that much in Nigeria. I hold Tuface in high esteem but this attitude is unbecoming of a musician of his status. My client has really suffered so, we are asking for #150 million for breach of contract.
