9jaDopeMusic Artist Profile: Nolly_B @Iam_NollyB

9jaDopeMusic Artist Profile: Nolly-B, The chronicles of a determined artiste

9jaDopeMusic is in the business of celebrating creativity regardless of where its from; it’s all about celebrating originality and applauding ingenuity.
Before profiling any artists; it’s important to remember that this country is home to over 167 million people! This scary reality should not only paint a picture of the amount of talent in Nigeria, but also highlight the stiff nature of the competition these artists face.
understanding uniqueness in style and delivery, it would be proper to assume this “teen-wonder” is eccentric.
Onyeka Emeghalu AKA Nolly_B; a student of the prestigious NOUN (National Open University of Nigeria), is one of those who believe he could become a serious threat to some of the big names in the business.
Blending western hip-hop style with Afro R&B; Nolly_B is slowly carving a niche for himself and evolving a brand of music that should in due course become his signature feature.

*Read his chat with 9jaDopeMusic below:

He has been a huge support to me and always advised me also. I thank him a lot for all that & for blessing my single too & I pray God crowns all his efforts. Amen

Police Smash Five-Man Robbery Gang In Lagos (Photo) @9ja_DopeMusic

THE Lagos State Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) has smashed a five-man armed robbery gang. Four members of the gang were arrested and their leader simply named Lekan reportedly escaped.
The suspects are Tayo Abiola, 36 from Ikale Village in Ondo State, Bala Shaibu, 33, from Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, Tayo Olajide, 25, from Osun village in Ekiti State and Jessi Garba, 36 from Damboa village in Borno State.
According to the police the five-man armed robbery gang went to rob in Ajah and branched elsewhere to share their loot when SARS operatives swooped on them.
Garba confessed to the crime, saying: “We were five in number. We went there to rob but police came and arrested four of us. It is only our gang leader Lekan that escaped. My role is to beat up stubborn victims”.
Olajide said: “I am a barber and the owner of the hotel where the gang members usually lodge. They have not given me a dime since I knew them. My role is simply to provide accommodation for the gang”.
Shaibu claimed to be a taxi driver, saying he used to follow Garba on patrol as friends not knowing that he was an armed robber.
On why he could not leave when he found out that they were robbers, he said it was too late to do because it could cost him his life. He said he is the gang’s operational driver.
Abiola said their victims included one Navy Captain Overt and one Omobolanle Babatunde and that the operation was carried out on July 20 at Ilaje Ajah.
Abiola said his younger brother, Sunday, was an armed robber.
He said he was with Sunday’s gang when the police arrested them while sharing their loot.
He said he was arrested along with them, adding that a gang member was shot dead in a gun duel with the police.

Breaking News!! Three Huge Bomb Explosions Hit Maiduguri @9ja_DopeMusic

Three blasts hit the city of Maiduguri in northeast Nigeria on Tuesday killing a number of people, locals and the Red Cross said.
AFP reports that the “huge explosions” happened in the Ajilari Cross area of the city, which has been targeted by similar attacks twice in the last month, including on September 20 when 117 were killed.
The previous attacks were blamed on Boko Haram, which has increasingly hit “soft” civilian targets in recent months using suicide bombers and improvised explosive devices.
It was not immediately clear what caused the latest blasts, which happened in quick succession from 8:10 pm (1910 GMT), said Bashir Mohammed, whose house is near the scene.
“We are all confused and people are running helter-skelter,” he said.
Sheriff Ahmad, a cleric in the area, said: “Many people have been killed. I don’t know how many and I don’t think anyone can tell you now.”
Ahmad described seeing body parts on his house, while Hafsat Sani, a nurse at the nearby Umaru Shehu Hospital, said: “There are many houses around the area and the blasts have affected many of them.”
The hospital quickly began receiving the injured while police, soldiers, the Red Cross and officials from Nigeria’s National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) were mobilised, he said.
A Red Cross official said: “Obviously there are people that died but I don’t have figures.”
There was no immediate comment from the police or military while details were sketchy as Maiduguri is subject to a night-time curfew.
On October 1, at least 10 people were killed and 39 injured when four suicide bombers blew themselves up in a wave of attacks in Ajilari Cross, which is near Maidugiri airport and a military base.
At least two bombs were strapped to teenage girls, witnesses and the police said at the time.
The September 20 attack targeted a mosque and killed football fans watching a televised match as well as bystanders.
Amnesty International said last month that the Boko Haram conflict had killed at least 1,600 people since the start of June in Nigeria, Niger, Chad and Cameroon and called for more protection for civilians.
An AFP tally puts the death toll at more than 1,320 in Nigeria alone since Muhammadu Buhari became president on May 29.
