You all are supporting this guy. You are about to usher into politics another uneducated dude with no clue of what economy nor business is all about. If he can't excel and make a voice via music like sunny Ade , and other legend in Nigeria. Sure he won't handle anything well. I see the why he came up with koko garri, and other packaged product. Any one can do that....brand a bag and put garri inside. Does that make him a business man or farmer. Don't forget Terry G also bagged pure water I think he should be there in the Forum as well. This is a path way to become a *common thief* like what our so called president regard people stealing billions. If u all go back to is first song. Mo bo lo wo wan. He was talking about how they steal credit cards and cash people's money without their consent. This is what he did back in UK, now why won't he steal or defraud Nigerian if he finally gets into this political group. Be wise people. We are all played like cards, koko garri last week now attending WEF. where are the likes of Dangote , Adenuga and rest....even though we know our government sold us out to them by giving them the power to monopolies almost every products in Nigeria. Well we youth must see beyond one making money. .. making money doesn't mean he is successful....The path to making it and legacy and principles matters. I am not hating but I think he should focus on the music career.

Because you see artists in videos singing with some half naked girls doesn't mean you know them already. I just hate the nigerian attitude, if it was JayZ that was there you fools would rain praises on him. Now it's one of your own, which of you here knows d'banj personally? When you see people progress be happy too, don't hate because the fact remains that. HE WAS THERE, HE IS RICHER THAN YOU HATERS, HE'S MORE POPULAR and YOU MAY NEVER BE THERE IN YOUR LIFE cos instead of raising some1 up you spend your time bringing people down.

I sed in my last comment on Dbanj (when Linda posted his KOKO GARRI Launch) that as pipu dey beef na so the guy go dey rise. the truth is this dude is somehow doing good for himself. he might not be a good singer or a good producer, but Dbanj has got charm and intelligence enuf to progressively achieve what he has achieved in life. from Mo Hit, to good music, to becomin an Ambassador, to becomin a pose boifriend 4 a female American Celeb(ounpe#In thick yoruba tone) then to becoming a farmer. (Has the Nig minister for Agric tot of owning a farm?) if Dbanj carries on like this, we'll all watch him grow continuously and i'll be happy for him. Maybe he'll even bcom a Minister someday. so, get d facts people and stop bellowing on ur hungry broke ass tummies. dat young man is trying so hard to be a success in life.

this africa world economic forum is just a talking shop, we have been here before, african governments just like talking without action. Nigeria govern is good for that, they would talk all these proposals and go back to their various states and continue to steal the public funds and sink their citizens into more poverty.i will give you an example, in the seventies, our Nigeria government made a proposals that they would build houses for all BEFORE the year 2000, we are now in the year 2014 nothing happen,infact corruption on the highest level in the history of Nigeria.Africa should stop deceiving them self and wasting out time with all talks we are tired of it for many years.

at anonymous 1:40AM well said...just whats on my mind. Very soon he will say hes going for a political office and embezzle like any other. We youth of today have the mindset of getting into politics to get our own fair share of the national cake, not until such mindset is erased no future for this country. Will we ever have selfless humans like Mandela who will fight for pple not because of monetary value but for Just and equity amongst humans. God help us, only if we are ready to help our-self.

Some people are just so not it.i am pretty marveled at the level of some pple's reasoning. So the fact that he is a musician means he cant be contributive in a diff sector or field? Or do u guys think they will accept him on that panel if he had nothing to offer? Why did they not accept u on tne panel and went for him instead? Do u think if u had something good to offer they won't accept u on the panel? Or do u thing d selection committee r not professionals? So of u pple on LIB have to wake up to reality..Life is all about the value u create or what u have to offer..there r no free meals in the world...so rather than sit down idle, spend ur whole day on LIB, I will advice u build n develop ur capacity, make meaningful contributions so u can also dine wit kings someday(that is if u r not 1)...be objective, take full responsibilty 4 ur future, stop d hating (cos while u r busy hating, other wise pple r busy progressing)...#GetALife.....K

Lots of Yall have serious black belle and undue hatred!.....

I can write a page full of reasons why he DESERVES to be seated on the Agricultural panel next to Elumelu...but ill just give two.

1. D Banj is an Agricultural entrepreneur ....as proved by his packaging garri...i.e koko gari........

2..Dbanj is a Role model to our youths on agricultural matters........ill explain! .....How many of our millions of jobless graduates are thinking of going into farming???? Rather they looking for oil jobs, yahoo tins etc.....Dbanj's Foray into agriculture is a positive example!...Nigeria cannot be forever dependent on oil, so all Dbanj's fans will look at the agricultural sector with new intrest!


#kudos...Ejanla is blessed indeed.......Potentially he can make more from agriculture than even music..Yes!!!

does bono use his real name. he is the one ambassador for agricuklture and he is the one supposed to encourage youths all over africa to take up agric so he deserves to be there. The guy is strategically placing himself. he was at the NESG conference standing toe to toe with all the people that matter in the country. U cant take it from him. they say he is a washed out musician yet the biggest event in africa in the last year, the nations cup he was the headline act. they say he is useless in naija yet the biggest movie to come out of naija in recent times (half of a yellow sun) he sang the soundtrack. see mmy people bless God for his favour and blessings on the young man and pray for your own. PSL he hates on no one thats y he continues to prosper

Anonymous said...

Majority of the people here who say negative things but want to be successful in life obviously don't know what it takes; when you cant acknowledge the efforts of another man/woman whether small or great then you can never understand what it takes to be successful. This young man, Dapo Oyebanjo, knows there is limit to ones achievement in this life. From his inception till date, he has remained relevant and is still exploiting new opportunities granted to him; He has pressed on with his efforts and today we see him sitting next to successful people in the African/Global economy. Ask yourself, if he was not successful in his field,would he be there? People, acknowledge the efforts of others, then, maybe you will know what it takes. To all the youths doing something positive in their field to change the global perception towards Nigerians, please, carry on and keep at it.
