Now Muzik-managed artistes, 2face, Timi Dakolo and J.Martins, gave
soul inspiring messages to Nigerians through their music in a bid to
help and give hope to flood victims in the country.
The event was a fund raising dinner put together by the
Presidential Committee on Flood Relief and Rehabilitation and presided
over by President Goodluck Jonathan at the Banquet Hall of the
Presidential Villa.Rendering the thought provoking lyrics of Great Nation to the guests, Timi evoked a sense of patriotism, and a belief that greatness is within the grasp of each and every Nigerian.
Speaking about the event, Timi said, “It is fulfilling for me as an artiste to contribute in my own way towards giving hope to the flood victims. Their rehabilitation is very paramount and finding a lasting solution to flooding in the country is also very important.”
The soulful singer also explained why he kept the guest glued to their seats with Great Nation with this words , “I sang Great Nation, a single off my Beautiful Noise album,
because it is the message of hope, unity and patriotism that we really
need at this time in our great country. It will move every Nigerian to
always strive to make unity our priority".
The Iheneme crooner, 2face Idibia, also held the guest spellbound
with a performance of his timeless hit 'See Me So' . J. Martins was also
on ground to perform his classic hit song 'Cool Temper'.
The event, anchored by one of the co-chairmen of the committee
Alhaji Aliko Dangote, was graced by captains of industry, top
bureaucrats and high-profile advocates.
Over N11b was raised in cash and promissory donations for the flood
victims even as the President appealed to Nigerians and the
international community to donate generously to the course because it is
a tragedy that will melt the hardest of the heart.
