Award winning artistes/dancing maestros P Square had an embarrassing
performance at the just concluded Glo CAF Award ceremony which took place at
the Eko Hotel, Lagos a fortnight ago with other top acts like D'Banj and Lagbaja performed too. The sound production was so wacky as the
duo got on stage to give their performance.
The twins had to be called up to the stage a second time for another
performance. This did not go down well with fans, as they took to twitter to
rant and mock the twins on their performance. You can read here NMM
This got to the notice of the twins and Peter Okoye took to his twitter
handle to apologize to their fans, said:
YES! Heard the sound was bad from the broadcast. Sory not our fault. Show must go on. Peace!

This is just the tip of the iceberg for innovative entertainment. It is a new world order; it is a Jonzing World!!!
A ritzy, swanky and lavishly new night club christened JONZING berths tomorrow Wednesday 28th September 2011 with a never seen before kind of Red Carpet event which starts off by 6:00pm (Invite only).
The 300 holding capacity fun spot is located within the highbrow residential and commercial area of Lagos, Nigeria "The Island" off Ajose Adeogun, JONZING is the first of its kind. The venue screams of lush to say the least. From the exquisite interior to the relaxing exterior. Early privileged visitors to the venue have described it as exciting and refreshingly different.
Moreso, its news worthy to mention that the brain behind this grandiose night life entertainment venue is none other than our very own Prince of Effizzy, D'Prince a.k.a Omoba of Africa's number one label Mo'Hits Records.
Jonzing is for your princely entertainment and D'Prince is putting his clout solidly behind the assurance of how to party in style.
D'PRINCE
Though yet to release his much anticipated debut album since he first came into the music scene with the Mo'Hits Crew, D'Prince have dished our numerous monster hit singles like "Ooze", I Like What I See", "Jonzing World" and his debut single "Omoba". He have also featured on a number of songs with various popular artistes like Wizkid, Samklef to mention a few.
The jovial, quick witted and intelligent new club boss in response to why venturing into this new sector of entertainment, cited his desire and need to not just be a part of night life social buzz as an entertainer but also be creatively involved in an innovative way in entertainment entrepreneurship as a whole; thus the birth of Club JONZING - a term distinctively affordable and perfect when summing up the intended customer market for this club.
The drinks are affordable to every young person that intends to party in D'Prince's territory but of course always with supreme quality. With choice fresh fruit cocktails and signature drinks tailored to thrill any crowd with good taste.
The main floor is massive allowing for artiste performances and D'Prince to party with club crawlers. Also the posh hangout boasts of the best VIP for tables/bottles and VVIP strictly for A-List entertainers and high profile clients.
It promises to be an exclusive RED CARPET AFFAIR with major media attention both locally and internationally as it stands to provide a very good blend of entertainment for the trendy young at heart who have carved a niche for themselves.
