How I paid N250k to get Wizkid, Ice Prince, Wande Coal – Bolanle Austen-Peters

Filmmaker Bolanle Austen-Peters has revealed that she paid N250,000 to have Wizkid, Ice Prince and Wande Coal perform 13 years ago.

The 54-year-old made this revelation on Monday while speaking at The Covenant Nation’s national development fair The Platform.

“I remember 13 years ago, I had a party and I invited Mohits crew. I’m sure some of you know them. They came with four artistes, Wizkid, Ice Prince, Wande Coal, and one more person. Guess how much I paid 13 years ago, N250,000 for all of them? Today, I dare not even ask that they come and play for me. The beauty of our youths is that they have been able to transform their talents into wealth and that is something that is commendable and that we all need to start understanding,” she said.

The Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti director also commended Nollywood, noting how movies are now being acquired for millions of dollars.

Bolanle is the daughter of Afe Babalola, a senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN).
