Nigerian singer Abolore Akande professionally known as 9ice has fired his manager for non-performance.
9ice whose career has gone under water for some years now has employed the services of the Temple Management Company to help resuscitate his career.
He said that with his new management he will be able to release his new music and also access international fan base.
In his remarks, 9ice said: “For me, this is the right thing to do at this stage in my career and indeed for any forward thinking artiste. When we started music, we grew with the knowledge that everything was all about the artiste; you are the manager, owner of the record label etc. We did this to the best of our ability.
“This is the time to give experienced professionals the chance to take care of you because one will become the better for it. Temple Management are like our own Sony or BMG in Nigeria. Any artiste who plans to grow need to work with the right people such as Temple Management Company.”
Speaking about signing 9ice, the CEO/Founder, TMC, Idris Olorunnimbe, noted that 9ice still has a good fan base in Nigeria.
“We recognize the foundation that 9ice has built and established, together we can build on and take it to newer heights,” Olorunnimbe said.
“At Temple Management Company, we do not gamble but believe in strategy and pinpoint execution,” he added.
