#TBDaily x #Event Mavin Records concert this Christmas!!!

I can tell you guys for sure now- December is going to 'be lit'. As the cool kids first.

If you're spending your Christmas in Lagos, then pencil 23rd down for a night with the Mavins as earlier on today at InterContinental Hotel, Don Jazzy, Dr Sid, D'Prince, Dija and Reekado Banks made the announcement.

Tiwa Savage and Korede Bello were unavoidably absent but the former gave a statement expressing her joy.
"I can't wait to thrill my fans at the concert and appreciate them for all their goodwill messages during my sojourn to motherhood. It's going to be exciting performing on stage with my label colleagues and I just can't wait.”

Gbemi Olateru-Olagbegi moderated the event where Dr Sid explained why three years after its inception, foremost music label Mavin Records is now holding a special concert.
"Our fans have always been here for us through thick and thin. Without them, there will be no Mavin Record Label or Don Jazzy or Dr. Sid. What could be a better way to appreciate their loyalty over the years than this?"

Don Jazzy has promised there will be live performances and special surprise appearances, plus, to answer the safety question on everyone's lips, high level of security.
I asked Di'ja and Reekado Banks how they, being two of the new kids on the block, felt and they both said they were excited and can't wait to 'bring it' for the fans.

Honestly, neither can I!

I am curious, other than the Mavins, which other artistes would you like to see perform at the Mavin Concert?

#TBDaily x #OnlyTheBest There are mosquitoes in Mauritius and other cool Day 2 stories!

This post has to start with that revelation.

When you get on a plane in Naija, you assume you're leaving traffic, NEPA and yes, MOSQUITOES behind. I got bitten by two mosquitoes yesterday, or the same mosquito bit me twice. Either way, it was an interesting welcome. It could not however overshadow the main Welcome Dinner- a Night of a Thousand Stars. First off was the Walk of Fame with our names in stars...

Then there was the paparazzi screaming my name and scrambling to take my picture. A selfie here and an autograph there (ok fine I was just giving my email address out) and I was up for a great night.

Banky W and Ramsey Nouah at the Dinner

Even the food was for #OnlyTheBest

Had to take a quick selfie with Banky W

I ended up crashing early because I knew the next day would be a long, fun one.

Theo Erasmus, Wangi Mba-Uzoukwu, Tim Jacobs and David Booth

Breakfast, check! Then we had a Multichoice Roundtable where people had various questions like why there's no Pay Per View, how come GoTV was not available in certain countries, why Supersport had moved to a premium bouquet in others and more.

Considering that I had been remarking with my friends from Kenya that we (Nigerians) don't seem to know what goes on in Kenya, it was nice to hear from Multichoice that they will look into making content from one region available in all (eg, East African Content). Amen. Amen. Amen.

We had lunch, bumped into the stars like Stonebwoy and Basketmouth, then went off for Sony TV's take on the Amazing Race.

Naija Meets Ghana! Stonebwoy

My bandanna indicated I was in Team Red; not a bad team to be in. The race involved downloading an app, answering a question, getting the clue then going off! I ran past Korede Bello at some point but I had my eye on the prize. Did i win? Find out here- Sony TV takes us on an Amazing Race!

Not the first time i have been in a Team Red!

Running but had to take a picture of Korede Bello

I did win a Mojito though!

*sigh*
This Nigerian dey carry last o. Or at least almost.

I'm back in my room resting now after a session with Supersport (Caroline moderated and she was so good!). 

Join me here tomorrow for what else I'm getting up to but get instant details via my social media- 'tosynbucknor'.
