Laws created are meant to guide the citizens of every society and
anybody that violates these laid down rules and regulations surely will
be punished. In Nigeria, there are laws guiding every activities in the
country including choice of words. Compared to our foreign counterparts,
everything counts and that is why people feel that the foreign society
is more civilized.
As peace gradually sets in the Nigerian
entertainment sector over royalties, every bodies handling the affairs
of music in the country are beginning to sit up as there has been total
war on either artistes royalties or taxation on any show organized in
the country. Hmm, Nigeria must grow.
Recently, the Performing
Employee Association of Nigeria (PMAN), have pounced on rib cracking
comedian Bovi after he brought American singers, Rapper, Ja’Rule and
Ashanti to perform in his ‘Bovi Man on Fire’ show held at the recently
in Lagos.
PMAN have demanded N3 Million on taxation for the
comedian’s international artistes and Bovi has fumed over this demand.
He said that it was not right and could affect the growth of the
industry.
What a pity for Bovi who will have to pay for the
accommodation of his international guests, pay them for their
performance, pay for the hotel itself used to host the event, including
flight ticket and for his other friends of the guests that came in with
them.
No be small thing o!
