WARNING TO ALL EU PROMOTERS AND NAIJA BASED PROMOTERS..........enough is enough


                            WARNING TO ALL  EU PROMOTERS AND NAIJA BASED PROMOTERS

It has come to our notice that some Nigeria and Europe based promoters are on each other’s neck because of Betrayal, Selfishness, Greed and Unprofessionalism. Many are saying things can no longer continue like this as they have been betrayed so many times by Promoters who would negotiate with an artist in Nigeria get an agreement then bring out flyers to announce their shows, yet another promoter would go behind their back and offer more money to block their shows. A promoter would be promoting a Nigerian based artist in Europe another one would be promoting another Naija based artist in the same city same time same month, all this unprofessionalism has to stop as a matter of urgency. We all need to be matured and professional in this Entertainment business as it is not a do or die affair. No one is superior to another and we must put a stop to this menace that is plaguing us as a people and as a body comprises of many professionals. EU members are not a bunch of thugs or kids and must all grow up! How much do we actually make from these so called shows that we are putting up every time? Though many among us keep quiet, but we know the amount of money we lose a lot of times from promoting artists from Nigeria.

We the members of this great association are coming out to condemn this act! We must all find ways to work together! We say NO to this injustice, because it is very wrong for an EU promoter to announce his show and another EU promoter would go and post to Facebook that the show is not holding. This is very childish and unprofessional and must be stopped as a matter of urgency!

This great association will no longer tolerate this kind of behavior anymore and any person bringing an Artist from Nigeria, should be ready to work with EU promoters in “Good Terms” otherwise the appropriate authorities will be informed and the Venue of the show sealed off. We will also carry out our own advert disqualifying that show as Illegal and no deejay will be present for such show and the artist from Nigeria will not be able to perform in any part of EU.

We in the EU would also take on a very drastic action and go on a total “Locked Down” from Holland, Spain, Finland, Norway, Germany, Italy, Belgium, etc. While many may still be in doubt and wonder how we are going to achieve this, just understand one thing, we are getting COORDINATED because we can no longer sit down and allow anyone spoil the Entertainment industry in Europe which we have worked so hard to build and sustain all because they are thinking of their pockets alone.

To be forewarned is to beforearmed.

NAIJA-EUROPEAN ASSOCIATION (NEEA)
