If you can get up on your feet and move to it. Then its good music\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Sharing his thought on how the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) operate, he had a few words of advice for the anti-graft agency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith much power comes great responsibility. I believe the EFCC are just doing their job but if you have no probable cause to detain a suspect then that\u2019s where the line should be drawn. Because a person lives a questionable lifestyle doesn\u2019t make him a criminal. Investigate and get your facts right before placing an arrest or ruining a person\u2019s image\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>However, he said,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe this is an issue of choice. We all have free will to either use something positively or negatively. Music has nothing to do with the corruption of youths, if anything it\u2019s what brings people together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>(function(d, s, id) {\n\t\tvar js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n\t\tif (d.getElementById(id)) return;\n\t\tjs = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n\t\tjs.src = \"http:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_GB\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.9&appId=1281965775160257\";\n\t\tfjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n\t}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));<\/script><script>\n\t\/\/Facebook\n\t(function(d, s, id) {\n\t  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n\t  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;\n\t  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n\t  js.src = \"http:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.4&appId=513460408765074\";\n\t  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n\t}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));\n\t<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rotimi Agbana Though fast rising Afro-beat musician, Lateef Adeyemi Adedapo, a.k.a, Latoya, takes education very\u00a0 seriously and plans to sponsor kids to school in the nearest future, after spending quality number of years in bagging a degree in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, from the University of Lagos, he dumped the idea of securing a lucrative [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":649087,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[3653,1738,2405,3654,1452,3652,730,761],"class_list":["post-649086","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nollywood","tag-arresting","tag-efcc","tag-investigate","tag-latoya","tag-musicians","tag-properly","tag-singer","tag-tells"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 -
