Popular and multiple award-winning Nigerian producer, Michael Collins better known as Don Jazzy has come up to explain his side of the reported misunderstanding between him and his signee, Rema, describing him as an ungrateful person.
Don Jazzy who revealed that he had invested a huge amount of money up to the tune of over N2.5b in Rema; highest he had ever spent on any artiste since the beginning of his Marvins Record, hinted that his intention was to build him (Rema) to become a global superstar.
“Since when I start my record label “MAVINS RECORD” REMA is the only artist I have invested more than “N2.5 billion” in order to make him a global superstar, but when he started making huge amount of money he felt like I was not paying him enough money not thinking about the money we invested in his career”, Jazzy said.
He continued “ recently he was invited by some Indian billionaires to come perform at their Marriage and he was paid over $3Million and we decided to give him $1.3million from the money but he still feel like we are not treating him right and he even want us to terminate his contract with Mavin records”.
While revealing further that he had other artistes in his record label, Don Jazzy maintained that he won’t be signing any artiste, saying: “ I have over 6 artist in Mavin records but I choose to invest this huge amount of money on rema because I wanted him to be at the level of artist like Wizkid, Davido, Burnaboy and Asake and when the music started paying he wants us to terminate his contract, I’ll never sign any artist again moving forward I have seen a lot in the hands of young artist already”
Don Jazzy who is also a singer, songwriter, and entrepreneur was born on 26th November, 1982.
He co-founded the now dissolved Mo’ Hits Records in 2004 with D’banj. In 2012, he founded the Marvins Record and has produced hits for top Nigerian artists like D’banj, Tiwa Savage, Dr. Sid, etc.

The United States House of Representatives has endorsed an amendment that would increase the withholding of certain US assistance to Nigeria from 50 percent to 100 percent until the country takes effective steps to address violence and improve the protection of its citizens.
The amendment, proposed by Representative Gregory Steube of Florida’s 17th Congressional District, was adopted by a voice vote on Wednesday.
The House had earlier proposed withholding 50 percent of funds appropriated for Nigeria until the US Secretary of State certifies that the Nigerian government has taken “effective steps to prevent and respond to violence and hold perpetrators accountable”.
Under the new amendment, the withholding would increase to 100 percent, while retaining the same conditions for the release of the funds.
Speaking in support of his motion, Steube said withholding only 50 percent of the funds appeared to reward the Nigerian government “despite failure to meet its fundamental obligation to protect citizens”.
“I rise in strong support for my amendment to increase the withholding threshold for assistance to Nigeria, from 50 percent to 100 percent. While keeping in place benchmarks that demand Nigeria take effective steps to address the violence and persecution that continue to devastate the country.
“Nigeria has faced a horrific wave of violence that its corrupt government has failed to address.
“For years, and especially in recent months, Christians and other religious minorities in Nigeria have been subjected to violence and terrorism at the hands of extremists operating with impunity.
“Christian women and girls continue to be abducted, assaulted, tortured, and killed. Their churches are burned, and entire communities are erased.
“If the aid conditions included in the bill are important enough to withhold half of all the funding to the Nigerian government, then they are important enough to withhold all of the funding.
“The generosity of our taxpayers is a reflection of the American values we hold so firmly.
“Never should we allow their hard earned tax dollars to be funnelled to corrupt regimes that fail to uphold religious freedom, fail to adequately confront terrorism, and fail to protect the innocent from persecution.
“So, why are we rewarding a government that fails to meet such a basic obligation?”
Steube said it is absurd to expend foreign aid to Nigeria in the face of rising insecurity, especially as America’s national debt approaches $40 trillion,” Gregory Steube stated.

If Umahi’s daughter was found naked and dead in a poor man’s house Nigeria would’ve been on fire-Dalung
Ex- Minister of Youth and Sports, Barrister Solomon Dalung, has criticised what he described as double standards in the investigation into the death of physiotherapist Mary Habila, saying the public response would have been entirely different if the victim had been the daughter of a government official
Dalung made the remark while reacting to the controversy surrounding Habila’s death at the country residence of the Minister of Works, David Umahi, in Uburu, Ohaozara Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.
Speaking in a video shared on social media, the former minister questioned the pace and manner of the investigation, arguing that ordinary Nigerians are often subjected to harsher scrutiny than powerful public office holders.
“If Umahi’s daughter had been found naked in a poor man’s house, Nigeria would be burning,” Dalung said, suggesting that the circumstances surrounding Habila’s death would have attracted a different level of public outrage and official response if the roles had been reversed.
Mary Habila, a 26-year-old physiotherapist from Kaduna State, was found dead at Umahi’s residence on June 27, 2026. She was reportedly attached to the David Umahi Federal University of Health Sciences and had been seconded to the Federal Ministry of Works.
Umahi has since confirmed the incident, describing Habila as a dedicated member of staff who had worked with him for about three years. He said emergency medical personnel were contacted immediately after she was found unresponsive and disclosed that he advised the family to consent to an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death.
The minister has repeatedly denied allegations of any cover-up, insisting that he has nothing to hide and supports a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the physiotherapist’s death.
Meanwhile, the Nigeria Police Force transferred the case to the Ebonyi State Criminal Investigation Department (CID) for further investigation, as public interest in the incident continues to grow.
Dalung’s remarks add to the increasing calls for transparency and accountability in the investigation, with many Nigerians demanding that the case be thoroughly investigated and that its outcome be made public regardless of the status of those involved.
