This is according to those who spotted him recently. They said he was surrounded by uniformed men and men in mufti. What is not clear is if the police and SSS protection is temporary until after the public outrage that followed his interview with the president dies down or if it's a more permanent one. D'Banj was said to have expressed concerns about his safety after being threatened by some youths for 'selling out'.

Lmao. I don't think the koko master can sweet talk himself outta this one. O'shee
I'm sorry I recall seeing him with security escort in early February at the Maltina relaunch event held at the Oriental hotel. His car (a landcruiser I believe) had the police lights and everything. His plates indicated his Peace Ambassador status. This isn't new. FREE D'banj
From VIP (Very) to VIP (Vagabond.) He's on his way up now he can call the President his pal!!
Good for him. I tink everything is working out for him the way he wants it to.
Make una free the guy abeg
naija ppl are their follow-follow mentality

What stewpid opinion is he entitiled to...its cos of people like u this country is going to move foward...hiss....oshhhhhi
Sell out oshi!
abeg i want sell out too.
anybody wey e pain make e go sleep for brt lane.
Dbanj is a powerful musician that should have stayed Neutral, especially in a country like Nigeria, where everything has not worked and the ruling party have contributed to the people's suffering. He should have advised the youths to go out and vote, like Amara and Eldee and M.I have done, but obviously for selfish reasons he went ahead and endorsed Mr Jonathan and even Joined his Campaign team, he scored low on this one big time, very disappointed and after reading Eldee's version of the whole concert alot of people are very angry with Dbanj.
Youths are meant to stand together in issues that affect us, am not saying Dbanj does not have the right to endorse Jonathan, but a party that have squared our resources for over 12yrs, he should have tread carefully. I personally am disappointed, Dbanj Idolize People like Fela and he knows what Fela stood for. There is a Youth debate tomorrow and Dbanj koko concert is on same day when other Presidential candidate will be there to tell us the plans they have for Nigeria, Dbanj and Mr President will be dancing our future away. Shame!!!
Free him abeg
@Adebola.why should he have stayed neutral???he is a human being and he is allowed to tilt in whatever direction he wants. i remember oprah and jayz and a few other campaigned for Obama. did they stay neutral????being a public icon doesnt mean you cant take preference. Blatter is a fan of barca and he says so always.
Kini big deal?
He who looks for trouble must surely land in trouble. I don't pity him at all. He is a money monger.
at anon12.33
you must be a sad case for that stewpid statement of yours
so if its not your way its the highway right?
olodo like u
make sure u go swim in a river of acid when GEJ returns
all these nonsense ppl
someone chooses to vote for GEJ and your spewing rubbish
u choose ur own make i choose my own
shikena!
Haba, people should free D'banj ke. Last I know he never claimed to be a political activist.
Pls stop being so judgmental and hypocritical...D'banj is not Eldee.
Entertainer l'omo and he has never lied otherwise....entertainers croon for whoever pays...and he who pays the piper gets to dictate the tune!
Love him, Hate him, D'banj is just being real to himself o...most peeps need to learn the skill and mind their bizwax!
smh....its like nigerians are not ready for change and it saddens me...d'banj sits with mr president for an interview and they are sending him death threats...what rubbish?...sometimes we the youth act so stupid...Gosh
@ Doll that is your opinion, Mine remains. Thanks
One of the solutions to Nigeria's problems is CURSES. Even Elijah cursed!!!!!
Nigerians should wake up in the morning and curse all the evil leaders, not necessarily by name.
In the afternoon and evening do the same thing.
DBanj was supposed to give the guy a THOROUGH interview but he used shortcut and some people here are defending.
MAY YOU ALL REAP WHAT YOU SOW. MAY YOUR KIDS AND GRANDKIDS REAP WHAT YOU ARE SOWING.
MAY YOU NEVER ESCAPE THE REPERCUSSIONS OF YOUR ACTIONS.
ammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Linda ikeji or whatever u call urself, i think u are too baised to run a blog, yes ur blog is nice but u continue to seek cheap publicity at every oppurtunity.
@anon 5.11
same to you and your generation
back to sender
how on earth are we defending the interview he did with GEJ
Ki La Ju ?
No one has the right to threaten any other person with Death for any reason at all.........especially for a lame one for choosing his presidential candidate.
we are simply saying he is a citizen of Nigeria and he has the FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT to chose a candidate of his choice
heck I dont even send Dapo,I dont like him and whatever he stands for ..........
Nigerians let their sentiments cloud their mode of thinking sometimes ........gosh
follow -follow band wagon
maybe if most of you THINK for yourselves for once
then youll know he is entitled to his opinion.
GBA!

U are doing a very fine job..keep it up kokolet...as D'Banj will say.
ooooshhhhheeeee
My heart bleeds when i read comments like this.
Can you imagine some people supporting what Dbanj did & comparing naija to U.S.
Some people are even comparing G.E.J and Obama .
Since when did we start comparing a 3rd world country with a developed one?
A country with no healthcare with one that has.A country with where policemen collect bribes daily to one where police protect their citizens!
Obama didn't dine with Bernie Madoff while our presido is dining with thieves.Obama didn't pay Beyonce money from American tax payers to perform.
Hmm..SMH
I guess the saying is true "we get the leaders we deserve"!
my broda i no agree with u o...the sooner we compare ourselves to yankee the better...its high time we start looking at ourselves as a great nation...i see no reason why we cant compare Obama and GEJ...and if GEJ did pay d'banj to help him campaign...how dat one take consine everybody...no be politics again...hahh..nawa oo
@ SOJ....thanks for ur comments abeg.
Banky W and the rest sang for Fashola 2 weeks ago, nobody made any noise.
Dbang dey root for GEJ...what exactly is the problem with that? does he not have the right to support who he wishes to?
na wa o
i see nothing wrong in what d'banj has done,abeg free the guy,haba naija peepo,the only problem i had with the interview was that he should have been more composed not he being star struck.....as far as i'm concerned all these talks are baseless...period
Linda I must say uou have nooooo ethics of public writing! Why would you use an insultive word in response to a comment written on your blog? you might as well reply every negative comments with insults. People are free to air their minds especially where you give them room. this is part of the reason Nigeria is where it is today. people are very insensitive
With regards to D'banj's so called interview with GEJ, it was really disheartening in this decade we are in, it was sooo shallow and contained no intellectual or intelligent form. Dbanj is free to support whoever but not with tax payers money. He is very famous but just got infamous with what he did, he did not represent any youth. and like a writer said Nigeria is a place where is safer to remain neutral.
also Dbanj was seen to be swiching camps. he was once an avid ACN supporter but alas I guess he got carried away. But I only hope this has taught him a lesson
@anon 3.43pm you are not making any sense.No ethics of public writing my foot! Is she a different species from the people who insult her? Think before you make a comment, pls.
pls which one is public writing in the matter? is she writing for punch or thisday? it is HER BLOG! free her abeg. kmt . i swear linda ur too nice, posting all these people's comments. the babe was marely reporting.
abeg u pple shud rest.
@anon 4:25 PM, you are wrong...and
@anon 3:43 PM is right
Linda is the owner of "a blog" in the public Domain, so she has to be the one exercising restraint in terms of words and what she writes.
Imagine buying a newspaper that uses uncouth words on a daily basis for their critics.
Linda should have risen above the person who had a go at her with lines like " if you don't like my blog, sorry it's not solely for you. Read other blogs. Simple.
Guess she still on a learning curve and I don't think I've even seen her have a go @ people on here or use a bad words. So id say there is always a first time
Good Job u are doing girl. XXX
OK we will free Dbanj...but hear ooo as you lay your bed na so u go sleep..
When GEJ has finished using u we will all be here.
Don't get carried away with all the effizy..ask Shina Peters...

lmfaoooo...choiii...u be boss...nothing do u sha
D banj didn't start supporting PDP today. I remember during d 2007 elections his song was remixed for a pdp campaign ad for yaradua. Does d song 'what's the koko, PDP'? Ring a bell. I remember some blogs sayin he was paid handsomely for it. It didn't start today. He can choose which ever party he wants, he doesn't owe us any explanation.
Sometimes my boss Keyamo takes certain clients i dnt like, doesnt mean i'll start raking and running my mouth. Chai Nigerians sha.
Does of U hating dbanj shud as my sister says 'use ogbono soup and do skipping rope'....
GEJ/SAMBO for transformation
