Nigerian singer, Dbanj has denied rumours in Ghana that his buzzing new single, �Oliver Twist� was banned by the Nigeria Broadcasting Commission (NBC) because he may have referred to the backside of Nollywood star actress, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde.
Responding to a question by a journalist in Accra, during a press interaction for the Vodafone 020 Live Concert, DBanj stated that there was no such reference to Omotola in his song and that he didn�t see anything too special about Omotola�s bum anyway. He joked, �wey tin dey for Omotala yansh we e no dey on the streets of Accra?�
Dbanj further explained that �Oliver Twist� was never banned and that the news came about as a result of the machinations of social media. He said he hadn�t gotten the chance to react to it because he was busy travelling and doing promotions abroad, and also the controversy was good publicity for the song.
�I never really said anything because it was just helping the whole song. The song has not been banned. �Oliver Twist� is a simple song that means what I believe everyone of us -- whether man, woman or animal -- stands for, what we are, and what I have seen. I don�t know where the propaganda started from but it has been chaotic on social media recently and people have been spreading rumours or people dying and things happening.
I was in London heading to Miami and I saw the news. So I called my management and they called the NBC and they said they aren�t aware of it being banned. My people say they have been hearing it everywhere, radio stations are still playing.�
