Popular musician, Abolore Akande popularly known as 9ice was in a fix this afternoon as an ATM card belonging to him was seized at GTBank located in Ibadan, Oyo State (Nigeria), today (29 August 2008)
According to an impeccable source, the musician was trying to withdraw some money at the Bodija branch of the bank when the incident occurred few hours ago. He reportedly came in company of four other guys to the point of withdrawal. He actually came for a photo shoot at a studio known as PIXEL when he decided to withdraw some money at the nearest bank.
“I think he entered wrong password three times and the machine doubted him. That was why the card was seized” disclosed the source
Sources hinted www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com that he later approached bank officials so that they can help in retrieving the card. We gathered that the musician is in Ibadan right now for an event tagged “24 hours with 9ice”.

And so what if ATM Swallowed 9ice's CARD?I beg eee!Spare us this irrelevant news.Afterall,many Nigerian Bank customers are getting their Cards retained day in-day-out.Who is reporting that?Please,dont reduce this great blog of yours to a by fire-by force publicity mout-piece for celebrities. Give us more better gists.
ReplyDelete@Austynzogs-I believe you know that this blog report celebs and events. Can you mention the names of all the bank customers whose ATM cards have been seized in Lagos alone?Mine was also seized at a time and it was no big deal but 9ice is a celeb! If this same thing happen to R.Kelly or JLO in US I believe the report capture headlines. Don't let us pretend about it, haven't you read story about the food a celebrity ate in the morning?
ReplyDeleteSecondly, this blog is free and i have the right to choose what to report.If National Enquirer or News of the World report that a Beyonce ate Banana this morning,do you go all out to tell the reporter that he wrote an irrelevant story or add ur view on what that Banana could do to her body?
My brother, if 9ice ATM get seized or 'swallowed', I will report it again and again.
Thanks for writing. I also appreciate ur regular texts on situation reports on Lagos roads.
