J Martins and Musa Isa on stage
Eighteen-year-old Musa Isa from Kogi State, Nigeria will certainly have a tale to tell when he goes back to school.
On Saturday, at the 2nd leg of the Star Music Trek concert which was held at Lokoja stadium, Lokoja, the young secondary school student not only got a chance to see his favorite star, J Martins face-to-face, he also left the venue with a special gift from the artiste, a wrist watch valued at over US$10,000.
Urging the young boy to work hard and face his studies squarely, J Martins handed over his watch to an obviously overwhelmed Musa who will probably remember this act of generosity for a very long time to come.
Amidst the thunderous applause, there are very many for whom this bold gesture comes as a surprise, not because the reticent artiste is tight fisted but quite the opposite actually, because J Martins is well known for leading a quiet life and keeping his generous deeds well hidden from the public eye.
