Sen Nwaka distances self from music video praising him

* Says sycophants behind it for extortion

By Steve Oko

Second Republic Senator and 2023 governorship aspirant in Abia State, Senator Emma Nwaka has distanced himself from a viral music video produced by an uncommissioned self- acclaimed music star and actor to praise him.

Nwaka who was a former Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Abia State, said the intent of the producer of the said video was to extort money from him as he never contracted her to embark on such project for him.

The short music video was produced by one Jamila Haruna, who described herself as a “musician from northern Nigeria and also an actress in Kannywood”.

The music sang in Hausa by Haruna with a group of ladies and sub-titled in English language was sent to Nwaka by the singer soliciting financial “appreciation”.

Nwaka expressed shock and embarrassment that the producer sent the said video to him and was soliciting financial appreciation.

He said it was embarrassing that the producer who he never knew, decided to embark on such project without his permission.

Nwaka totally disclaimed the video and urged members of the public to disregard it as it never had his authorisation.

He said:”I don’t know where it is coming from. “I don’t know who sent them or their motive. They didn’t consult with me before producing the video”.

According to Nwaka, when the video was sent to him via WhatsApp he made it clear to the producers that it was a distraction to him..

” I told them I don’t need this kind of publicity at this moment in time.

“I am not running for any political office, and I have no plans to run in 2027”.

Meanwhile, the producers appears to be using the music video to blackmail the legal practitioner cum politician after they “asked for money, which I’m not ready to give”.

“They’re now threatening to go viral with the video clip,” Nwaka lamented, saying, “I am wondering how they even got my phone number”.

The singer and actress had in one of the WhatsApp messages she sent to Nwaka claimed that the “complimentary video song which I composed” was based on his kindness, integrity, contentment”, among others.

She acknowledged that she produced the music video “without permission” but insisted that Nwaka “deserved (it) and I will like to have your appreciation on it”.
