Tonto Dikeh Needs To Learn How To Sing – OJB

Tonto Dikeh

Babatunde Jezreel Okungbowa popularly known as OJB is no stranger to the Nigerian music industry. Matter of fact, he can be described as one of the pioneers of the industry as a veteran music producer and singer.

In an interview in which he talks about his sojourn in music and how he has remained relevant for almost two decades, OJB shared his thoughts on Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh’s entry into the music scene.

He said: “The problem is that she wasn’t listening to the key thing. People did not download the song out of love but out of surprise. If she really wants to go into music professionally, she needs to take out her time and learn how to sing.”

However, OJB notes that she did not learn as her subsequent efforts do not show any remarkable improvement. “It’s a lot easier to cross into acting from singing but a lot harder to cross into singing from acting. If after her first single, she got better people to coach and produce her songs, she might not have complained so much but there was no improvement.”

And he concluded by saying of the actress, “As far as I’m concerned, Tonto Dike’s delving into the music industry is a bad idea right now. Her wanting to sing is not bad but her thinking that on the platform of the fact that she is a movie star, so she can sing, is a very bad idea.”

'Tonto Dikeh Should Be Scared Of Me'-​Rising Nollywood Star, Shirley Igwe

Shirley Ogechi Igwe

Fast- rising Nollywood actess, Shirley Ogechi Igwe, no doubt, is on the ladder to the top as she smiles to the banks every other day; all thanks to juicy offers that are coming her way recently.

The sultry thespian and many times Face of Delta Soap/Orange Drugs recently sealed a deal with leading liquid detergent brand, Mama Lemon. In this interview exclusive interview with http://www.nigeriafilms.com's Alonge Michael , she revealed how acting started for her, the state of the movie industry, life as a super model and many more...

What was the attraction to acting? 

I fell in love with the make- believe world. It's amazing how you can play so many characters that you are not and still be you.

So, would you say you are in the right place?

Yes, I am in the right place. I love my job. The feed back is amazing. A lot of people have said Tonto Dikeh should be scared of me. That's their own opinion. I've come to create a ME, to carve a niche for myself not to take anyone's spot/place. In fact, I'm the next big thing in Nollywood. The sky is my starting point even as I want to be a Hollywood star.

What movies have you done so far? 

" Fazebook Babes/lovers". Before that, I did "I broke my heart", "The kings and the Maidens". I've just finished "Jafar's House", an Oak-field movie shot on celluloid production. There are also "Babee", "Cross of Royalty", "Last Three Digits" and scores of others.

Who are the notable names you have worked with in the industry?

I worked with Majid Michel, Chigozie Atuanya on the set of Jafars house; Mike Ezuruonye, Yvonne Nelson, Yvonne Okoro, on the set of "I Broke My Heart"; I've also worked with Mercy Johnson, Oge Okoye on the set of "Fazebook Babes"; Nonso Diobi, Dr. Sid on the set of "Last Three Digits"; Tonto Dikeh, Ruth kadiri on the set of "Cross of Royalty".

There's this insinuation that Nollywood is slow right now; are you affected? 

Is Nollywood slow right now? Movies are going to cinemas every week. Premiers here and there, is that slow?

So what is your advice to your colleagues who are fast losing hope?

Keep your hope and aspiration alive. Pray! Be very prayerful. Nothing in life is easy. You have to work have to earn hard. Bankers too work hard if not harder. So, it's everywhere. Nollywood is going places take "Dr Bello" for an example. Don't give up now. No, you can't do that.

How did you click the Delta/Orange drugs advert back then and how far did it projects your career?

I went for an audition and was chosen.That's it. And it did a lot for me. In fact, it got me the limelight which I'm enjoying till date.

How about the rumour that Tony Ezenwa, the CEO of the company dates all the beautiful models before giving them contracts?

Never! There is nothing like that, he's a respected man and his company is reputable, he won't indulge in a thing like that.

Can you share other modelling jobs?

I did a couple of them back then. Sky Bank, Multi-Links Communication, Oceanic Bank, Wedding Planner Magazine, there are so many that I can't even remember. I'm currently on MAMA Lemon advert.

In between acting/modelling. which pays you more? 

I've passion for both.

You are ravishingly beautiful, how do you cope with male attention?

Really, it's not easy. I try to be polite and straightforward.

When would you be ready for marriage? 

I'm single and ready for marriage.

Has the right man come?

If you're the right man, make your intention known! (Laughs)

Can you tell us about your recent deal with Mama Lemon; how were you contacted?

The deal is for a year and can be extended though. They were looking for a fresh face. Sandra Ikeji (Black Dove Models) contacted me. I went and was chosen.

How much is the contract?

How much is your salary? (Laughter). If you tell me, I will gladly tell you how much the contract is for (laughs).

We learnt you are shooting your own movie; how soon?

Yes, my movie is coming up soon. I won't rush it, I want it to come out top so I won't rush it at all.

Can you please share your beauty secrets with us?

I make sure I don't sleep with my make up on, no matter how tired I am.

What's fashion to you and what determines what you wear?

Fashion is expression. How you want to express yourself. How you want to flatter your body shape. I wear what I'm comfortable in and the kind of outing/event also determines what I wear.

What's that fashion item you spend most on? 

I spent on everything. Every item is important and has to be on point.

Who is your best dressed Nigerian actor/actress?

A couple of us actually dress well so it's pretty difficult to pick the best.

Can you please tell us about Shirley, schools attended, where you hail from?

I've a great personality. I'm very private, God fearing, down to earth and promising. I attended Federal Government Girls College, Owerri and Imo State University, Owerri where i studied Mass Communication and I hail from Imo state.

Thank you shirley for having our time.

Thank you, Mr. Michael Alonge.

Wizkid Needs Tonto Dike To Step Up Her Grammar

They’ve been twitter buddies for years. And, contrary to what is widely believed, they both continue to insist there’s never been any romance between them.
Well, Wizkid might just be severing ties with Tonto Dike who many feel is fast becoming a ‘nuisance’ on the social network, Twitter
Wizkid on Tuesday, November 6 expressed his displeasure at Tonto’s spelling game.

 ‘I get mad when a chick doesn’t type right…wtf is succezz?!‘, a somewhat infuriated @Wizkidayo tweeted.
Any ardent follower of Tonto Dike on the social network know the controversial actress replaces her ‘S’s with ‘Z’s.

 Here profile reads;
Who eva said Succezz waz a slow procezz waz mos defntly not talking abt Mii/Businez tycoon/A petro/chemical engr /IAMNollywood *#IAMPOKO# Tlovethyself #I luv TerryG.
And when someone jokingly explained to Wizzy, that Miss Dike was only being trendy, he replied – ‘thats that sh*t i don’t like!’.

Wizkid had earlier expressed his dissatisfaction with the actress venturing into the world of music saying that ‘she needs to chill’.
Well, Miss Dikeh’s not chilling yet, and it’s possible what she’s doing on and off twitter is paying off – with over 200,000 downloads of her debut singles, and a constantly increasing loyal fan base, she’s getting more attention than anyone else in her category. Only time will tell what she’ll do with it…

KAS ABANDONS TONTO DIKEH’S SONG, PROMOTES KAS WATER

Tongues are already wagging on why the record label, Kas Records, in which the sultry actress, Tonto Dikeh recorded her highly condemned two singles, has refused to promote her song but another business he just ventures into, Kas Water.

Kas ( the Fimile crooner), we gathered, signed Tonto Dike sometime last year and as a matter of fact, Tonto Dike appeared on one of his tracks titled “Iyawo wind”. On Oct 17th, Tonto Dike released 2 singles that set social media networks on fire but the absence of a statement of support or promotion from her supposed label boss or even music collaborator Kas speaks volumes.

There are insinuations here and there that maybe the guy is too embarrassed to identify with such a bad product from Tonto or maybe the beautiful, good and sexy actress but bad singer is no longer signed on under Kas label. Wee need information please!

(LESBIANISM?) TONTO IS MY BABY-RUKKY SANDA CONFESSED!

For sometimes now, the relationship between Tonto Dike and Rukky Sanda has become so tense that they hardly do without each other.

The fact that they both stay on the Island has made their friendship so tick. Unarguably, there is nothing wrong in having a close friend, but what happens when the closeness is becoming unbecoming?

Well, in this context, NFC cannot really state categorically if lesbianism is involved in their relationship but owing Tonto’s antecedents, one can not totally rule it out that Tonto Dike and Rukky are ‘partners’.

In an interview recently, Rukky confessed that she is a very close friend of Tonto and that is the truth. ‘’ She’s one of my best friends. She’s fun, naughty and amazing. She’s my baby,” she said

Producer threatens to arrest Tonto Dike

Jumping from one set to another among movie stars has become a recurring decimal in Nollywood. Just last year, an Onitsha based film production outfit, AMACO Investment Limited, owned by Solomon Apete dragged sultry actress Uche Ogbodo before the leadership of the industry, accusing her of a breach of contract and demanding the sum of N2million from her as a compensation.

We are supposed to be rounding off this weekend but we can’t. Tonto cannot disappear with all the money we have paid her.” an angry source fumed. Directed by Nonso Ekene Okonkwo, Tonto is starring in the movie alongside Frank Atus, Queen Nwokoye, Oluchi Ukaku among other stars. The movie is titled “ Blood Rage.”

Sensational actress Tonto Dike seems to be sick and tried of the ugly happenings in this country.

 Apart from the recent removal of fuel subsidy which grounded the country for six days, the controversial actress is decrying the incessant extortion that goes on at the airport in Ikeja, where motorists are compelled to pay between N100 and N150 depending on the size of their cars as toll-gate fare.

 She sees this ugly practice as an act of wickedness on the part of the government of this country. Venting her anger two days ago on her facebook wall, the River State born actress wondered how wicked the leaders of this country can be. According to her, ”

 the airport was built with the tax payers money but we are forced to pay between N100 and N150 to go through the toll-gates, depending on the size of your vehicle.” “Some people are even forced to spend the transport fare needed to board a taxi at the arrival of their final destination.” she lamented.
