Interview: I Do Not Belong To The Illuminati – D’banj

[Sunexx360]

  What does that scary definition have to do with a Nigerian pop star who says he is determined to make Nigerian music knownfar and wide? A lot, according to some people.
    ' Illuminati ' [ih-loo-muh-nah-tee]: A name that refers to a purported conspiratorial organization which is alleged to mastermind events and control world affairs through governments and corporations to establish a New World Order.

     And how does he know Kanye West and Jay Z are members of the Illuminati? The response:' Why are you talking like this now? I watched DVDs and read about their evils ways on the internet, so automatically, D'banj too is a member .'
      HOW THE CASE WORSENED
   The internet can be an educational tool, but with no barriers to curtail false or poorly proved accusations, everyone's opinions on their blogs, Twitter and Facebook pages are, to a large extent, taken as facts – So people began writing out their opinions and many readers swallowed it hook, line and sinker. An ' Oliver ' dance competition video which went viral over the next few weeks worsened the matter – a blog 'Wazobia Report' published a lengthy article written by a 'Jowo Mabinu' (which means 'please don't g
