Following
the ugly incident that between one of the boys of DJ JIMMY JATT and akpako master
TERRY G on Sunday at MUSON CENTRE Lagos, the association of DEEJAYS in Nigeria
and diaspora has now placed embargo on all TERRY G songs.
This was
contained in a press release by the association signed by its secretary
Sebastian Ikpoza (Dj Desert Storm) yesterday.
DEEJAYS
ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA PRESS RELEASE
Attention:
All
Nigerian DJs in Nigeria,
All
Nigerian DJs in Diaspora,
All Radio

All Club,

All

EMBARGO
ON ALL TERRY G's SONGS
It is
with due respect that we hereby call on your solidarity to the aforementioned
situation. The Deejays Association of Nigeria (DJAN) through the disciplinary
committee had over the years intervened on issues affecting our members and
Musicians cum Artistes whenever our Rights are trampled upon and Mr Gabriel
Oche Amanyi aka Terry G have been given verbal warning on several occasions in
recent times.
On Sunday the 5th of June 2016 at the Muson
Center, Lagos State, Nigeria, a music/comedy show held and Terry G was not
among the artiste billed to perform, he begged the organizers until he was told
to perform for seven minutes, but he got on stage already tipsy and after about
18 minutes on stage insulting everyone, the organizers asked the DJ to play a
different song by another artist, no sooner had the song began to play that
Terry G descended on the DJ who was the head DJ of Jatt Incorporated.
Beyond
assault, The DJ sustained various degree of injury on his face, right in front
of the Legendary Dj Jimmy Jatt.
This type of violence and physical abuse is
unacceptable. However, legal actions are on the way but after wide
consultations and deliberations, the Deejays Association of Nigeria hereby
place an 'EMBARGO' on all songs of Terry G, audio and video (including songs he
featured in) indefinitely in all events, lounges, bar, radio and every other
spot where it is the duty of a DJ to play music Nationwide.
Signed:
Sebastian
Ikpoza (DJ Desert Storm),
National
Secretary. Deejays Association of Nigeria.
We are yet to get the reaction of TERRY G on this latest development.
