LG CHAIRMANSHIP CALAMITY TUSSLE ROCK APC,

Crisis is rocking the All Progressives Congress (APC) over coming local government election. In Lagos state.
Society Herald News gathered from a reliable source that the party leaders has instructed 19 former LG Chairman to return without primaries which party members at local level has totally rejected that internal democracy must be sustained. Based on this we visited some affected local government/LCDA and the outcome is not pleasant at all as party loyalists at grassroots’ level has vowed to leave the party if primaries is not allowed.
Ifako/Ijaye-Apostle Toba Oke is said to comeback without primaries, though some party loyalist agreed while minority said capital No that they should go for primaries.
Agboyi/Ketu-At Agboyi Ketu, they lost the chairman who is supposed to return to make it 19 and as such the party loyalist wants primaries or use the former SLG Mr. Dele Osinowo.
Ikosi Isheri.-Is a thug of war as party members completely reject Oyesanya Abdulfatai to return as chairman. In fact like 70℅ of party members has said they will do all within there capacity to make sure he does not return.
Ojodu LCDA.Ogba-This is another LCDA where the party has said Oloro the former chairman must not return. It was a bad experience on Tuesday in Ogba as aggrieved party members resisted alleged attempts to impose Hon Oloro as chairmanship candidate for the LCDA.
Our reporter, who was at the scene, escaped being injured as chairs and other items were freely used to attack alleged agents of leaders who are bent on imposing the Hon Julius Oloro on them. Party members sustained injuries, with others scampering for safety, 3 were admitted in an undisclosed hospital within the area. Policemen from Area G, Ogba later drafted to the scene to stop the violence.
Efforts is in process to speak with the LG party chairman, Hon. Kelvin Ajakaye and a source close to him said he will speak with journalists after due clearance from the state Chairman of APC, Otunba Henry Ajomale.
However, A strong party member in the state who does not want his name in print, said, “They have started what led to the loss of some local governments in the 2015 elections, because they do not want primary. We want members to freely elect whoever should represent them at the local government, but they don’t want popular people; they want to impose their preferred candidates. And, we will not agree to this evil plan.” he said

 Enlag entertainment as a label as created one of the best singles released in urban music in the last two years... With good videos and star artiste collaborations...The artistes have performed in most coveted stages and venues in Nigeria like delineation, industry nite, Freedom Park, most a list clubs
Any challenged so far?
Major challenges are expensive media and no copyright law enforcement....many bloggers will upload your exclusive iTunes releases for free on their blogs, some will use your song commercially without paying you, and u pay for almost all media publicity no matter how little.... So a hit song could still be a long way from recoup of investments....
Any way out on those challenges you highlighted?
My way out of that is to do my own shows with my artistes headlining with other popular acts So instead of waiting for music sales n bookings...we book n sell our music at d venues...

Do you have any artiste on your record label if yes kindly tell us his or her name?
 I don't have a major artiste on my label, just upcoming artistes with great potential..

So how long have you been in the system?

Programs for my artiste are club tours, star features, concept videos, viral marketing, and star cosigns....more media publicity...

Tell us your experience so far in the industry and where you actually taught needed to be corrected?
Entertainment is what I have been passionate about, what prompted me to start a record label in 2014 was that there are too many random and average acts been shoved down people’s throat as great artiste.... So I decided to bring different artistes and brand that's has game changer vibe. This year, I plan on monthly shows and more viral marketing to get my artiste out there on bigger platform. It has never been a smooth journey because am promoting new act that's not on the trend bandwagon, but with different music that can set the new trend,
As the government done enough to encourage players in the entertainment industry?
The government just keeps promising support for the entertainment industry, we don't have copyright law enforcement yet the government needs to enforce copyright laws, so we can combat the big piracy market that has been earning almost all our profits...

Lot of people complaint about originality in most of Nigerians artistes song, did you agree with this or not?
On originality, No I am absolutely not satisfied yet but outboard popular acts in Nigeria deserved to be praised for their unique styles n lyrics but too many are still chasing latest trends....

Can we compare the entertainment industry in Nigeria with the western world?
Nigerian entertainment industry can't be compared with its foreign counterparts because of lack of structure and music law enforcement, but it can be compared in terms of good videos, talent, popularity, income from shows and our online says skyrocketed in last three years with Nigerian artiste like ajebutter, tuface, reminisce, wizkid, olamide knocking out their foreign counterparts on world online stores like iTunes....
