18 year old Musa Isa from Kogi State got the surprise of his life on Saturday June 15th when J Martins called him on stage during the 2nd leg of the Star Music Trek in Lokoja and gave him a wrist watch valued at $10, 000...which is a little over N1.5million.
J.Martins then urged the secondary school student to work hard and face his studies squarely. Musa couldn't contain his joy and said he will remember this act of generosity for a long time to come.
Whispering into Musa's ears..."Now sell the watch and put the money into a savings to help further your education". Abi, my people? #I'mjustsaying! :-)
God bless J Martins' heart!

wow! very cool gesture.
linda yes o!!!! becos they might just steal it and that's the end..
Wow! ₦1.6m watch. Lucky dude.
ROFL! I'd sell it too but it's his choice. Besides, selling it would be kind of disrespectful to J Martins. He can do whatever he wants with it.

No hating but wat iis the point of gifting an expensive watch to a student. A scholarship would have being nice!
I'll suggest he sell the watch before he's kidnapped with the watch.

This ugly wrist watch for 10,000 US Dolls ???? Hell no !
Linda as you don put the boy face and name now...Men will visit him soon..lol..
Oh lalalala

I think Jmartins should have given him d equivalent in cash than the watch
The guy should just sell the watch sharply and put the money in his savings account and the money should be used solely for his education
Yes ooo sell it boy

Omo hurry up and sell it..Wat is he using it for
Awww bless J Martins, lets hope they don't kidnap this boy o.
Sell the wristwatch he did say? Now who in nigeria buys a second hand wristwatch worth 10000 dollars? I dont get nigerians and their financial wisdom. I just dont get it. Linda do you?
The good nigerian
Which of the watches, the black or the white?
The watch isn't his to give
It's courtesy of Star beer
Somebody that just got married giving away 10,000 worth of watch? Unto wetin na? Him never buy baby food finish na to give out expensive watch
Marketing strategy again! Some years back, Faze was in lautech for this same star strek thing and he threw a gold chain worth 500k into the crowd!
Star is doing this, not J-Martin. He needs every penny he is paid to get on that stage and every penny is not even worth 1.5million.
Lucky boy should sell anyway or better still be like me, stunt on 'em girls ;) You wont believe how many girls he will straff with the hype! He can only do that while he is young abi
Naija una too much, coffee wey i dey drink hia comot my nose as i see dis
Guy sell the watch Sharp Sharp, and buy a two thousand naira worth ofwatch joor
I wud rada prefer him givin de boy #500k cash dan de watch. If he's to sell it now, it will no longer be 1.5M. Anyway him try sha....
oh boi, sell dt wrist watch, shaparlly....
Yes ,linda dat is a good advice,he should sell d watch.
@Sweetchiommy
How about writing the boy a cheque for $10,000 instead. The boy na watch dealer? Or how will he find someone to pay him $10k for that watch?

This guy is so generous!!! This is the second time i have witnessed such by J.Martins, He once gave a boy a scholarship in Owerri.
God bless ur heart J.Martins
J bobo,u 2 much jare,i na me b d boy.....na market straight away.....
I,m sure that watch is a replica the lad would have appreciated 500,000 as a against a watch that I seriously doubt authenticity of that artist o anything to hype there I images to start with what's the make of the watch I have avert good knowledge about watches. It's just an unnecessary publicity stunt not impressed.
some people are just sayin nonsence if jm did nt giv dat boy anitin il u people flog or beat him. Hw many of u peasant cn giv out a penut to som1. JM wntd helcyon fo some1 an isa was d lucky 1.u hungry crone an troll, if u wnt sombody to good to sm1,show d good example in pratical way.
Sell the watch Musa!
I,m sure that watch is a replica the lad would have appreciated 500,000 as a against a watch that I seriously doubt authenticity . these. Days artist will do anything to hype there I images to start with what's the make of the watch I have a very good knowledge about watches. It's just an unnecessary publicity stunt not impressed.
Yes he has to sell the watch and save for university
Nice... I bet he can't sell it for dat amount... Cargo tinz .. He'd be lucky to get 50k sef
MYRAYA
Why not just give him the money?
I know j martins means well ,,but it would have been wiser to give the guy the money instead of the watch,,seriously the watch can be stolen or even get spoilt buh d cash would go a long way for d boy,his education n his family #justsaying
Where exactly will he find the kind of client that would buy the $10k wristwatch? Its not as if there is a legal pawn shop biz in Nigeria. This one na real abracadabra gift. Take the watch back and hand him $10k cash
Wow nice. Like they say the giving hand is always on the top.
I know this is off topic but check out www.desybo.blogspot.com
whats the use of this watch? Y not give him a cheque instead, shey if dem beat am collect the watch the tin go be like film trick?
@lwkmd_naija

keep climbing Martins the sky is ur limit he who gives more is given...
Gbam,ur head dey there...I dnt believe dt watch is worth dt much....hype things.
what is the watch's name? stop selling crazy stories to boost J Martin's image....
Shut up,how many people you don help since wey you come dis world?
Na wah ooo,with their own money again?
TheChronicled Sell the watch sharperly lol! but then again I always cherish gifts, I hardly sell them
I agree Oo.
A star beer branded watch for 1.5mm?Linda get real!
♍γ̲̣̣̥ exact tots too, he shld av given the boy the money.
Jmartin and the boy na "money miss road"
Na wa o,d monetary value of dt Wrist watch is less than 1.5m. How many people in Nigeria 2day will but a wrist watch worth 500,000. Let's all wake from our slumber.
J Martins did well d wrong way. He shld av gvn d boy d equivalent in scholarship. Linda's advice is d best. I pray d boy sees who wil advice him n dat he takes it.
Linda the hype on this your Blog is becoming too much. That wrist watch aint cost nothing more than 15,000 naira. Its a cool thing J Martin did tho ..... but lets not be deceived that wrist watch is less than 16,000 naira. NO BEEFING ........Artist can hype too much .
Gog bless u 4 remembering d youth I hp u wl do more
Gbam! Linda u've said it all,end of discussion nne!
sell the watch back to J Martins..but Jay...u cud have give the boy a scholarship na..abi..make him keep watch for their museum abi?
Can't U jez see d gud side of hs action....I wonder wat U hv ever given anyone in ur life.mschewww
Disrespectful ke?
When the giver himself advised him to sell
Does dat boy look to u like someone that can maintain' a 1.6mill naira watch?#dats if dere is anything like maintainance of watch#lol.
Lmao!
True tlk.
My dear, sell that watch o!
please this is the worst gift. Why would he give an 18yrs old a watch worth this much? who will buy the watch from him? its not even lagos that i will say he will hustle and sell like 100k its kogi...... Abeg lets be realistic jor,where or who they boy wan sell the watch to? who will sincerly buy the watch at that price or even 500k sef? in kogi sef...ah ah.. u woulda given him scholarship jor
Would have been much better if he had given him a cheque of 500k or better still cash!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha........lwkmd
Dats a nice one JMartins!!
Linda dey add jara join ooo, I knw say dis artist get cash, buh to say dat watch cost $10,000 and he dash ham out na complete lie ooo. Hissssss.....
Chei. Your gbagaun is sending shivers down my spine
Nigerians have to be the most gullible people on earth. A $10,000 dollar wrist watch from J Martins to someone just anyone in the crowd? How much is his artiste's fee that he can afford to throw that kind of money away? Who even valued the watch to say it is worth that much? What make is it? We swallow everything hook line aand sinker. That's how that Amosun man that likes to decieve himself claims he made the most expensive champagne worth over a 100 Million Naira. Did professional jewellers certify the amount of diamonds put on the bottle - is there a second opinion external perhaps of the real worth of that bottle - is there any acclaimation from the Guiness books of records as to Amosun's claims? And he just dashed Don Jazzy over a N100 million with no strings and I'm yet to see his name in Forbes as first 100 rich men in the world. Na wa only God will help our deception. Onanikoko.
Now the question is who or where is he gonna sell the wrist watch to?
yea ryt Lindiway! he shuld sell d damn watch already. but who s gonna be d buyer,you?dnt fink so. Watch of dat worth goin as second hand,for dis country?maybe he ll av to leav d shores of naija to sell it,dat is if its not evn stolen bfor he attempts to
I would have appreciated this kind gesture the more if it was a cash, the boy may never be able to find a good buyer for this watch should he decide to sell and keeping it may be risky cos it can be stolen anytime.
give him education or something more sensible. A watch is nothing abeg
It's becoming profoundly worrying the lengths our artistes are going to to falsely elevate their profile among the vast majority of gullible NIgerians. Giving away 10 thousand dollar watches and posting pictures of Bentleys and Porsches every other day is seriously unbecoming..and to think that these Nigerians still go to their shows and buy their records when they're so shamelessly flaunting their wealth in your faces. What surprises me most is the absurd valuations that these pple place on these items. Who exactly is responsible for the valuation of these million naira cars n watches. cars . Even if they could actually afford these things, doesn't it behove on them to remain humble and attribute their success ti their teeming number if fans. Anyways I wish them all the bestbig luck. However I'll like to point them in the direction of various globally recognised artiste that wasted their money on such crass luxuries who today and battling with bankruptcy.. You can only be flavour of the month for so long..it NEVER lasts for ever..any by the way no one ever thinks it will happen to them... To be fore warned...
Well this surprise makes no sense to me at all. A wristwatch worth 1.5million Naira to an 18 yr old secondary school boy? I can't stop SMH! Even if he were to sell it as advised, who will he be selling to? Oh pls... If he wants to change lives then he should have given him that cash/cheque, that way he would have made sense.
Rbsh... u pple jst dey hail ds man 'unto wetin nau?' hw wil d boy sel d w.watch?,who wil he sel it to (remember he is in kogi st o),who can afford dat kind of money jst like dat 2 buy an ordinary w.watch,dnt u think d boy is nt safe and anybdy dat buys it is nt safe either.so wat ar we talkin about?? cnt he gv him cash or better stil scholarship... Think abt it/huh!/
seunzyl
Lies upon lies,those two wrist watches are not in any way shape or form similar,who is fooling who? Cheap publicity stunt,smh
Everybody is omitting the name of the $10K watch. Please do tell so we can confirm.
He picked it from one if the free gifts he received from companies and friends. He didn't just buy it and then gave it to the young boy.
look at the way J martins is eyeing the watch...u having second thoughts,abi? lmao!but good one sha, I still like you and your music!God bless ya
j martins u try, but it wuda been alot better if u had give d boi d money, so he'll do sumthng meaningful with it.. dat wrist watch myt jst end up missing and d money wil b gone.
@ anon4:05 ure a stupid fool!, anon8:28 my tots exactly....why give an 18yr old student a watch worth #1.6m,dats if atall its the real price.....why not give the boy in cash....Nawa!
Both of you need 2 be enrolled into an english class asap!smh!
Supported!!I don't evn think the watch is up to dat amount!
Lmao!!!I swr dwn
My dear,help me tell him O,see the ugly watch sef!phew#
Lmao!!!I swr dwn
Abeg dis watch no worth 20k naira self. How much be j matins stage performance fee? it's less than a million. Abeg mak em go tel em mama dat one. Dat watch no reach any $10,000. J martins no be jewelry guy wey fit spend dat much on a wrist watch. if u talk of people lik Dbanj, Kcee dos ones na jewelry guys dem be. Dem fit buy cap $100,000 sef. Abeg mak jmartins no dey wash us abeg. Dat watch no reach at all!
lol jay still looking @ his watch lol
Lol 1.5m change life for naija how wc business u wan invest this money only fuel alone go sap everything
why dint he just give him cash or sth?
Nigerians like findn faults. How many artists hv given random people gift? If he hadn't given out anytin, nobdy wld talk abt money. Now dt he dd u hide behind ur computer and talk crap. How many ppl hv u given money, clothe,shoes etc?I mean ppl dt rily nid it not ur lovers,frends &family? So just shut up and appreciate it and hope d boy does d smart thing by sellin it
I am pretty much pleased with your good work.
