00:00Say first, thank God and thank you all for coming.

00:06You mentioned about the inspiration, the inspiration is God.

00:10And this whole thing started from when I was with Kanye in Uganda

00:15and my face went viral all over the world.

00:20And I emphatically heard in my ears that it is not only your shine.

00:26There's so many other people that have put in their sweat and blood

00:29that you have to shine the light on them.

00:33If you notice in the entire stuff that was played,

00:38you can barely find me inside.

00:42Because that was the mandate, it is not about me.

00:45It is about Kenny Ogubi that advised late Dr. Raymond Dobesi after election.

00:53You know politicians, they want to go and enjoy.

00:56You understand? He said, what should we do next?

00:58He advised him, start a radio station.

01:01From radio station, it became TV station.

01:03At that time, TV starts from 4 and ends 12.

01:08But they changed the game with 24 hours.

01:11It's not just that.

01:12There's so many people here.

01:13Don Jazzy that you are mentioning,

01:15I refuse to put one particular story there.

01:19Because Jazzy was trying to survive in London,

01:22he had an accident inside the Blackwater tunnel.

01:25I'm sure he's laughing now.

01:27The car got destroyed.

01:29Do you know Jazzy abandoned the car?

01:31He was coming from Sulek.

01:32He went to perform for Sulek.

01:34And he was sleeping.

01:35He crashed his car.

01:37He left the car, removed the plate number and ran away.

01:39Why?

01:39Because you will pay more to carry that car away from there than to repair.

01:46Those are the stories.

01:47Look at Jazzy now.

01:48He has an arrest.

01:48He didn't stop that.

01:51So if we did not, or if we do not tape all those records,

01:55CDQ works with a bank.

01:58He resigned and became a rapper.

02:01All those stories are there.

02:02I know too much not to now submit myself to be the humble servant.

02:08It's not about me.

02:09I have my own story.

02:10My story is very interesting too.

02:12But the mandate was to shine the light on others.

02:15And it is not only me.

02:17You see those three guys there?

02:18I would like them to stand up.

02:20Daily, stand up.

02:22I've been working on the documentary for like months.

02:25There was no script.

02:27Somebody now called me that,

02:29this thing you want to edit, you need a script writer.

02:32They brought Daily.

02:33Daily watched all the tapes.

02:34How did you put all this tape together without scripting?

02:38It took him three months of script.

02:40Every night.

02:40It took him three months to script,

02:46write the entire footage that I first brought to them.

02:48The stand up to sing.

02:53Not my name.

02:55It's a Manchester United fan.

02:56He's the editor.

02:58Every night.

02:59This guy will be beside.

03:00He's the editor.

03:01They don't be shy.

03:05They are the heroes.

03:07You understand?

03:07Every night, this man will be beside his son and wife.

03:12I will call him.

03:13Or Bernie.

03:13We need to edit.

03:14They need to see.

03:15He will stand up.

03:16Kule, the graphic guy.

03:18He will be on his own.

03:19They are all quiet from private people.

03:21I'm saying it again.

03:22It is not about me.

03:24It is about us.

03:25It is about legacy.

03:26The most painful part of this whole documentary or everything I've done is just because we also lost.

03:33In the process, we lost Sam Soltan.

03:35I cried because I'm like, Sam Soltan, nobody can tell your story apart from you.

03:41He's a fantastic songwriter.

03:42So, it is important that we find time and do this.

03:46And the story is just the beginning.

03:48We're going to season five.

03:50And we're just barely scratching first season, seven episodes.

03:55And I'm like, okay.

03:58EWA, they have their platform.

04:00Let us even show our people.

04:02Because the narrative out there is that nobody built a building block.

04:05As you can see, who did on Yerui Ode at that time was the Don Jazi.

04:10He was the one detecting the shot.

04:12The man could not make it down here.

04:13He's over 80 years.

04:15And he's alive.

04:17If I do not propagate that man's story to the younger ones, who is going to propagate my story?

04:22So, because of that, that's the reason.

04:24That's the motivation.

04:26Ah, awesome.

04:31We got to New York to meet Kanye.

04:34We were calling Kanye's phone.

04:37His phone was going off.

04:38It was not going through.

04:40And we were trying to avoid telling people why we're in New York.

04:44You know the normal Nigerian way?

04:45If you tell, they will go and jazz it.

04:48We were there.

04:49Don Jazi, remember?

04:50We were there in New York for one week.

04:52And everybody was coming to Bancuri.

04:54You said Kanye gave you phone number for Dubai.

04:57You sure say you write down that.

04:58I said, I want it now.

04:59He gave you email.

05:00The email was bouncing.

05:03Bancuri.

05:03They will go.

05:04They will come back.

05:04They will look at me.

05:05Ah, no.

05:06How are they Kanye?

05:07I'm telling you, he saw Kanye.

05:09Okay.

05:10I could not hold it any longer.

05:11Now, I called Ogubwa.

05:12Egboi, wow.

05:13Hey.

05:14They said, we should not talk.

05:16Me, I will talk.

05:17We are looking for Kanye.

05:18He's the one that invited us.

05:19His number is not going.

05:21Email.

05:21Banc.

05:22Ogubwa said, okay, wait.

05:24And he went under one hour.

05:26Ogubwa came with an email address of Don C, the right-hand man of Don Jazi.

05:31I don't know how he got it.

05:33He just said, just nail that thing.

05:35And we sent the mail, and he responded back to me, and we met Kanye that night.

05:41How will I not tell the story?

05:45I'm saying it now.

05:46Somebody has taken it and put it in record.

05:48So, it is important that we share some stories.

05:51There are too many people here.

05:52O.J., what's his name?

05:55Mr. Black Knight.

05:56He's there.

05:57So many people.

05:57They are all here.

05:58It's important we mention their name.

06:00I mean, we do as we can.

06:01For sure.

06:02But listen, thank you.

06:03I can attest to Okubwa's story.

06:04When we did Kalaam for our way, he was an engine when we came to Nigeria to do that.

06:09See you at the next screen.

06:10Thank you so much.

06:16Hello.

06:17Good evening, everyone.

06:18This time we just threw our feet and grits outside.

06:22You need to forget the screen now, please.
