Nigerian music artiste Ice Prince has responded to the backlash surrounding his performance at the 2026 All Progressives Congress (APC) national convention.
Reports note that the rapper came under heavy criticism after he performed at the ruling party’s national gathering, which took place amid growing concerns over insecurity and economic challenges in the country.
Many critics argued that his appearance at a political event was inappropriate, insisting that entertainers should instead use their influence to demand greater accountability from the government.
Addressing the controversy in a recent episode of the Black Box podcast, Ice Prince explained that his decision to perform at the convention was influenced by his personal relationship with the APC National Chairman.
“Who booked me for that event? My uncle Nentawe Yilwatda who is the APC Chairman. He is not just a random person to me. He is my real uncle,” he explained.
