5 Reasons Why Don Jazzy Is The Greatest Nigerian Producer

Don Jazzy is undoubtedly one of the hottest producers in Nigeria right now, and that’s without a question. But could he be the greatest Nigerian producer ever?

Here are 5 reasons we think he might be the greatest Nigerian

1. Some Of The Best Hits and Albums

Don Jazzy’s discography is simply outstanding, and when you look at it, he’s been directly responsible for the production of some of the greatest Nigerian albums of the past decade; Dbanj – No Long Thing (2005), Dbanj – RunDown Funk U Up (2006), Dbanj – Entertainer (2008), Wande Coal – Mushin To Mohits (2009), Mo-Hits All Stars (2008), Dr SID – Turning Point (2010, Mavins – Solar Plexus (2012).

And the singles? Way too many to list out but let’s highlight the big ones, Dbanj – Fall In Love, Wande Coal – Bumper to Bumper, D’Prince – Omoba, Dbanj – Gbono Feli Feli, Dr Sid – Over The Moon, Dbanj – Oliver Twist, Mavins – Dorobucci, Dr Sid – Surulere and the list can go on and on.

2. He Can Reinvent Himself

Usually when big break ups happen like the break up of Mo-Hits, it tends to spell the beginning of the end for all parties. Everyone figured Dbanj and Don Jazzy would go on to have decent careers but most predictions had it that it’ll never be as high as it was.

Fast forward 3 years, and Don Jazzy has reinvented himself and re-branded in the name of Mavins, and has amassed a whole new squad of hit makers in Tiwa Savage, Dr Sid, Korede Bello, Dija, Reekado Banks and D’Prince. He’s found a way to have the hottest record label in Nigeria once again. Talk about bouncing back up like a rubber ball.

3. Made Some Big Artists

Dbanj, Wande Coal, Dr Sid and D’Prince all owe a huge amount of their success to aligning themselves up with Don Jazzy. It’s an outstanding attribute to have the ability to harness someone’s talent and kick it into high gear. With Korede Bello, Dija, and Reekado Banks slowly becoming household names, it’s clear that Don Jazzy’s earlier achievements is no fluke.

4. Social Media Promo

One thing is clear about Don Jazzy. He doesn’t just understand music, he understands entertainment and the ability to use modern tools to market it. When you take a look at how huge Oliver Twist got with the competition, how Doro in Dorobucci became the slang of 2015, and other major social media trends he’s created just from his music, you realize that Don Baba J is not just a beat maker, but a entertainment business mogul.

5. Longevity

It’s been a solid 13 years that Don Jazzy has been active in the industry, and it’s interesting that there aren’t many moments where he is not in the conversation as being the best producer at that moment. With his ability to reinvent himself, pick out talent, and harness it, you can see Don Jazzy being in the game till he decides he’s tired or maybe creates a product and chills out like Dr Dre.

Do you think anyone can break Don Jazzy’s records any time soon?

Top 10 Female Body Parts Men Love

Okay guys, are you ready for the top 10 body parts that you like about woman? Of course you are!

Before any chicks get offended and say that the following post proves that men are shallow, we have one thing to say to you: Who said you were allowed out of the kitchen?

We are only kidding... But seriously, the food isn't going to make itself. Anyway, we are sure you women would have abs, chest and biceps down as the top three for Top 10 male body parts women love.

10. Feet

We have never been a fan of feet ourselves; there is just something about the way they look that we can't understand why some of you get turned on by them. But each to their own we guess.

9. Back

The back doesn't really do it for us either, unless it's the lower back and maybe if there was a tattoo present. Yeah, we are referring to the dreaded tramp stamp. We do believe if you get a tasteful tattoo (none of that tribal crap) then it can definitely be a sexy place to get some ink.

8. Stomach

Now we are talking a sexy female body part. Although we have to say that we love the idea of a little ab definition such as the stomach of Cheryl Cole, we are not totally shallow and we do prefer the stomach with a little bit of something there also.

7. Legs

As they say in Bingo: Legs...11! We want to see them legs go on forever. Well, not too far or you would end up being 7ft 2 and we have misplaced our yellow pages. As long as they are shaved then it doesn't matter what shape or length, as we all know, a fuller leg means a fuller ass - which is a really good thing.

6. Hair

Now every man will have his own opinion when it comes to the Barnet. Us, we prefer dark haired girls. We even like you redheads (ginger) and we wish to share some ginger love with you - don't be hating on the redheads people.

5. Smile

No one can resist a smile from a beautiful woman. When you women smile, it shows that you're happy and that you like us men. Even though some men may act hard and come across as masculine, most of us still want to be loved.

4. Eyes

Eye contact is important and the phrase: "Love at first sight" is only possible when both of your eyes meet with each other for the very first time. Also, it applies to both sexes, there is just something about the colour blue that make eyes more beautiful.

3. Lips

As lips go, it has to be Angelina Jolie's Lips - there is just something about a fuller and plumper lip. Also referred to as BJ lips, but we can't understand why the name came to be. Can you?

2. Butt

Yeah, I bet as soon as you started reading this post you could have guessed that butt was going to be either 1 or 2. What is great though is that butts come in all different shapes and sizes and small petite ones can just be as nice as a Jennifer Lopez shaped one.

1. Chest

Drum roll please! Yeah, you guessed it; chest is the top female body part men love. Can you blame us? Anyway, it seems that most of you chested women know this as you seem to show them off and flaunt then in low cut t-shirts most of the time and we love you for it.

Sadly enough, but the majority of men suffer from lack of confidence in their body because they do not have accurate information about what women pay attention to in the first place. Of curse, it’s true that like men, ladies also choose their mates based on a superficial assessment based initially on a range of visual appeals. But even in this system of evaluation there are top 10 male body parts that women love the most. Which of them, we are going to find out. Here’s the rate from the least to the most favorite parts.

10. Muscular chest/shoulders

A hard 10 is guys’ muscular shoulders and chests. Fewer girls pay attention to them initially and subconsciously.

9. Penis

Yes, it is dramatically overrated by men, but women rate men differently and other parts are a more priority.

8. Neck

Neck comes in eighth. It’s a nice enough feature, good for nuzzling. A lot of females are crazy about it and wanna touch once see it.

7. Hair

For ladies, it’s just hair that matters, rather than its structure or something. It’s clean, messy, dark, light, wavy hair… that makes them want men.

6. Tallness/Height

The height of a man is also vital, especially for either too small or too tall ladies. They say they’re for feminine with the taller men and more solid with the men of their height or smaller st the same time. It’s up to them to chose, anyway.

5. Long legs

It’s not just your man should be daddy Long legs. Long legs however may be even more important for girls than for boys because they see a female butt and nothing more after all. No offenses!

4. Male Eyes

These “windows to the soul” are always in vogue, you know. Bet they are! Look at these.

3. Athletic torso

This is probably the most male body part and the most obvious for the opposite sex if a man is half dressed, so…

2. Slimness

If a man with strong arms and chest are traditionally accepted as alpha males which often deter the female, slim men are always in demand which is something middle between intellectual and brutal male beauty.

1. Buttocks

Finally, male buttocks are the sexiest part of the body which females adore to touch and look at. A male sexy ass can tell a lot about its owner, if you, ladies, know what I’m saying.

Of course, the rate can differ in various ladies. Nevertheless, the basic male parts that women love are as follows. Now that you are aware of them, you can look for the same sexy bodies in your partners and ant them even more.

If you have anything to add, you are welcome! Do not forget to share and comment the info below.

Buhari Reveals Job Creation Plan For Nigerian Youth

President Muhammadu Buhari has announced that job creation will remain one of the top priorities of his administration’s economic agenda.

President Buhari during the 2nd Convocation of the Kaduna State University in Kaduna.
Speaking at the 2nd convocation ceremony of the Kaduna State University on Saturday, December 12, Buhari assured Nigerians that his administration would give the fullest possible support to all efforts to create more jobs for youths.

“One of the focal points of this administration is job creation. Job creation will help in the achievement of other objectives of the government such as poverty reduction. Insecurity cannot be divorced from unemployment and poverty because an idle mind, they say, is the devil’s workshop.

“With declining internally generated revenue and over dependence on equally declining oil revenues, there is need to seek other ways of diversifying the economy so as to boost revenue.

“One of the ways we can achieve this is through the reorientation of our youths towards an entrepreneurial mindset. We must therefore promote and enhance the teaching and learning of entrepreneurial skills in all schools and tertiary institutions, thereby exposing our youth to the basics and rudiments of starting and sustaining their own businesses,” the president said.

Buhari added that his administration would improve ongoing programmes by the Central Bank of Nigeria, the Small and Medium Enterprises Development Agency of Nigeria, the Bank of Industry, the Bank of Agriculture and other Federal agencies to grant them start-up loans at concessionary rates.

The president belives that the improved programmes will encourage and assist youth to move from being job seekers to job creators.

Finishing his statement, Buhari expressed gratitude to the university for conferring an honourary doctorate degree of letters on him.

Meanwhile, the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics has released its third quarter report on unemployment and underemployment. According to it, at least 1.5 million Nigerians have become unemployed since President Muhammadu Buhari took office about six months ago.

6 Things Doctors Wouldn’t Tell You

There is the need to see the doctor at one point or the other. The learned know the importance of going to the hospital to have any anomaly looked at.

This knowledge of becoming more health conscious is being spread gradually; thus making the health sector a thriving or booming one. Thousands of people patronize hospitals and express their concerns over certain issues to the doctors. Most times people take doctors’ recommendation without knowledge of the main problem. They don’t ask questions either.
Aspirin And Its Side Effect
While some doctors may recommend the daily use of aspirin to the patients in order to prevent clotting of blood, many of them fail to educate them on the impending danger of prolonged use if aspirin. This drug has been researched to cause internal bleeding in some patients. Like every other drug, it may work for the time being masking the problem and then the side effects could start to show; another reason to be placed on other drugs.
X-rays Could Trigger Cancer
Exposure to radiation is one of the causes of cancer. In medical diagnosis, a patient may be required to have an x-ray done to detect broken bones, lumps and other issues within the body. During the course of having an x-ray done, a patient is exposed to a thousand times the radiation he would be exposed to normally in a day. This in itself is dangerous, despite this, some doctors still recommend x-rays to be done on patients. In pregnancy, it is extremely dangerous as the growing fetus could be affected at the long run.
Doctors Make Money Out Of You
Some doctors make money out of you. It should be known that doctors don’t have your best interest at heart always. This isn’t a derogatory remark; some doctors actually get paid by prescribing certain drugs to patients. Same way some of them are given a certain percentage for referring patients to some diagnostic centers. It’s more or less like a business to many; some even own a part of the pharmaceutical company whose drugs get prescribed. While one’s is important, one should also learn to ask questions or double check before going for certain drugs. Doctors have the right to prescribe any drug whether or not it works for the diagnosed ailment.
Dirty Habits
With many looking up to their doctors for advices and medical counsel which may involve one being totally truthful, it should be known that some of these doctors also have personal struggles that they battle with. With many investing their unwavering trust in their doctors, extra care should be taken as some doctors wouldn’t tell you of their drinking habits even when they warn you about yours. Some could have been pedophiles or rapists.
Drinking Of Coffee In Pregnancy
Many doctors lecture women about the danger of drinking alcohol in pregnancy. Pregnant women are advised to stick to healthy meals but most doctors don’t stress the fact that coffee is dangerous for them. Not only does coffee increase the child’s heart rate alongside its mother, it also inhibits the absorption of iron.
A Vital Cause of Diabetes
Diabetes is of two types. The Type 1 Diabetes and the Type 2 Diabetes. Type 2 Diabetes is caused when the body produces insulin that is not enough for the normal functioning of the body system. It is the most common of the two types. Doctors make tremendous effort in treating patients with this disease and also lecture them on the need to stay off certain food. However, most doctors fail to mention to their patients that certain drugs prescribed for them could put them at risk of having the disease after the breakdown. Antidepressant is one of the drugs that could cause diabetes.

United lost 2-3 in Wolfsburg to finish third in their group and fail to progress from the initial stage of the competition for only the second time in the last decade
Manchester United have reportedly cancelled their annual Christmas party in the wake of their Champions League exit earlier this week.
United lost 2-3 in Wolfsburg to finish third in their group and fail to progress from the initial stage of the competition for only the second time in the last decade.
According to the Daily Mail, club captain Wayne Rooney and the rest of the players and staff have cancelled the party of their own accord without pressure from manager Louis van Gaal or any of the backroom staff at the club.
The paper claims that the players did not feel that it was appropriate for them to be seen publicly celebrating in the midst of the team’s struggles on the field in recent weeks.
As well as their European exit, United have slipped to fourth in the Premier League table as a result of a run of poor form, which has seen them win none of their last four matches in all competitions.

The Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, Enugu State Command, has disclosed that its operatives rescued over 30 children and teenagers who were about to be trafficked to neighboring countries since the beginning of this year.
The said teenagers were to be engaged in child labour outside the shores of the country.
Commandant of NSCDC in Enugu State, Mr. Stephen Zwali Lar, disclosed this at a news conference in Enugu.
According to him, the teenagers were camped in various hotels in the state by the traffickers, who were not named.
But he explained that the traffickers were arrested.
Lar further explained that operatives of the Command rescued the children and teenagers after raiding the hotels where they were kept.
He added that they were handed over to relevant authorities.
“If the NSCDC operatives had not rescued the teenagers, the culprits would have trafficked them to neighboring countries for child labour,” he said.
In the same vein, Lar said over 90 vandals were arrested for tampering with Federal Government assets, including Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation pipelines.
He noted that the destruction of pipelines rose to a worrisome level in the zone in the wake of the recent revival of the NNPC pipelines from Port – Harcourt to Enugu.

The 32-year-old Ivory Coast midfielder becomes only the third player, after Nigerians Nwankwo Kanu and Jay-Jay Okocha, to receive the honour twice.

Football fans voted for Manchester City’s Toure, who first won in 2013, ahead of Yacine Brahimi, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Andre Ayew and Sadio Mane.

“I am very proud. To receive this dedication from the fans is unbelievable,” Toure told BBC Sport.

“Also I want to pay tribute to the other nominees. African football is growing up, becoming much better and we have fantastic young players coming through now.”

Toure described all five nominees as “champions”.

He added: “I am delighted and very happy. And as an African player, I want to lead all my younger brothers to be successful in the future.

“When I was a kid I was always dreaming of being an important player. I have sacrificed a lot.

“I will continue to try to win a trophy every year, I will fight to win a personal trophy.”

Two of the beaten nominees have won the award before, Algeria’s Brahimi in 2014 and Ghanaian Ayew in 2011. Gabon’s Aubameyang was on the shortlist for the third year running, while Senegalese Mane made it for the first time.

Toure has been nominated for the award seven times and his second win ensures his year ends with a trophy, just as it began when he led Ivory Coast to glory at the Africa Cup of Nations.

It is Senseless Asking for Biafra Because it is Not Possible – Senator Bukar Urges Agitators

Senator Mustapha Bukar has described the agitation by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Movement For The Actualization of The Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) members as senseless and funny.

A senator representing Katsina North senatorial district, Senator Mustapha Bukar has described the agitation for the independence of Biafra as senseless, Daily Post reports.
The senator made the assertion on Friday in Abuja saying the call for Biafra was unnecessary.
He explained that Nigeria has actually existed for over a hundred years, stressing that the Igbos have benefited from the nation’s magnanimity which has made them wealthier compared to people from other geographical zones even as they are scattered all over the nation.
Bukar said: “We have had Biafra before and I think it is high time we sit down and tell ourselves the truth. In democracy, if you have things like that, you don’t start asking for secession, but you can start asking for your right.

“If we have made mistakes before, then we have to own up to that responsibility rather than behaving funny so that our feelings can be understood to others.

”I think we have existed for over a 100 years and we all need each other. If you look at the people of the South East in terms of population, you find them all over the country with their living conditions better than people from other zones. So it does not make sense for them to be asking for things they know was impossible,” Bukar maintained.
He also asked those beating the drums of war to reconsider considering what happened in the past and how many lives were lost. Bukar commended South East governors and Traditional Rulers for the effort they were making in persuading agitators to think the path of dialogue as he said that remains the only option.
“I think the South East governors and traditional rulers have been talking to them and probably those behind them may toe the path of dialogue which is a good development and I commend them for that,” he noted.
