Even in their generosity, artistes hardly fail to be eccentric. Or how can multi award-winning record producer and helmsman of Mavin Records, Michael Collins Ajereh, known as Don Jazzy’s decision to give out items worth half a million naira to his followers on Twitter be described?
It was well intended all the same as he did so in celebration of his and Tiwa Savage’s endorsement deal with online shopping site, Konga. The leader of the Supreme Mavin Dynasty (SMD) announced on his Twitter handle, on Wednesday, that his followers should follow Konga, visit the website and munch image of any item they want and send it to him, using the Hashtag Konga (#Konga), with a pledge to buy for some selected people.
Many of his followers obeyed while a few doubted the move of the Dorobucci crooner, known for his generosity on the social media.
At the end of the exercise, the Mavin’s boss bought laptop, camera, washing machine, television among others for the selected winners.
Don Jazzy is also an ambassador for Loya Milk and telecommunications giant MTN, while the pregnant first lady of MavinsTiwa Savage is an ambassador for MTN, Forte Oil, Pepsi and Maggi.
