Singer Tiwa Savage Reveals How Nigerian Musicians 'Pamper' OAPs, DJs to Have Their Songs Played


 At the on-going Nigerian Entertainment Conference (NECLive 4), Mavin records first lady, Tiwa Savage was among a 7-member panel which deliberated on ‘Content Marketing: The Power of Music, Comedy & More’.

While speaking on difficulties many Nigerian artistes go through in order to promote their content, Savage said,

‘I was in the UK recently. They have people called ‘Music Pluggers’. These people are professionals who help artistes plug their songs on radio and also ensure that the songs get enough airplay.

‘But here in Nigeria, we artistes have to take our CDs to radio stations ourselves. We tend to build relationships with OAPs and DJs. We always ensure that we send messages to them on their birthdays because many of us believe that if we don’t do that, they might not play our songs.

‘I don’t think Rihanna has to know the OAP or the DJ on a breakfast show before getting airplay. I think we need those middle men that will be handling our music promotion.’

The session was moderated by renowned music video director, Kemi Adetiba.

Others on the panel include popular dancer, Kafayat ‘Kaffy’ Shafau, Content Director Project Fame, Nkiru Njoku, Banky W, CEO Spot Studio UK, Sebastian Paszek, GM Consumer Marketing MTN, Richard Iweanoge and Director, West African H.

Spanish Airline Withdraws Services From Nigeria, Cites "Financial Difficulties' Due to CBN Forex Policy(Report)



 Spanish national carrier, Iberia Airline has withdrawn its services from Nigeria. The decision which was taken yesterday, was based on the huge financial difficulties the airline is facing due to Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) refusal to exempt foreign airlines from its forex policy.

 Nairametrics, a Business News, and Financial Analysis Website, reports that other foreign airlines are also contemplating pulling their services from the country.

The CBN policy has prevented it from repatriating its proceeds made in Nigeria in the last few months. Foreign airlines have over $500 million trapped in the various banks.

Before Iberia took this decision, foreign carriers had expressed their displeasure at the CBN policy, with many threatening to withdraw their services from Nigeria if nothing was urgently done to reverse it, The Tribune reports.

Following this development, foreign carriers requested to meet with the Federal Government to work out a solution by exempting foreign airlines from this policy. They are expected to meet with Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo in Abuja, today.
