Lamboginny
Fast rising Nigerian artiste, Yinka Lawanson popularly known as Lamboginny has recently been appointed as one of the officers of the Nigerian Prisons Service (NPS) due to his contributions to the rehabilitation of the prisoners through music.
Lamboginny now works in the NPS music department. One of his many roles is to rehabilitate the prisoners through music. He is saddled with the responsibility of discovering the talented prisoners and helping them achieve their music potentials.
The talented prisoners will record their songs in the prison studios which will soon be completed. While they are at the prison, the album will be released. This is believed to keep them off the street and crime by the time they regain their freedom
Lamboginny who featured various Nigerian artistes such as Lara George, Nikki Laoye, AY.Com, Steel, Rooftop MC, Dekunle Fuji, Mike Aremu and others in a song titled ‘I No Go Loose My Head’, is also putting up a valentine gig in the prison tagged ‘Valentine in Prison’.
According to Lamboginny, expected celebrities at the prison on Valentine day are Ali Baba, African China, Fela Durotoye, Chinedu Ikedieze and so many others. Lamboginny said this is the time to show the prisoners love. “Valentine is not meant for lovers alone. It is the period of showing love to people and the people that needs this love most are the people in the prison. They should not be discarded because they are prisoners. Some of them are even innocent of the offence they stand accused. They are still part of us”, he said.
