Farmer Eedris
This is the best decision one time top Nigerian hip-hop star, Eedris Abdulkareem, has ever taken as he has decided to go into farming as the music industry is no more favourable to him.
With the younger generation taking over and raking loads of money, Eedris has decided to try his hands in other ventures so as to be able to take care of his family.
Eedris, who was popular with hit tunes like 'Nigeria Jaga-Jaga' and 'Mr. Lecturer', told a tabloid recently that he has gone into large scale agro-business in Kano State, where he acquired large hectares of land to cultivate maize and other crops for export.
This is better than engaging in war of words, Twitter fights and diss songs with other acts like Don Jazzy and Nomoreloss.
This is what Eedris said:
"I am a farmer now. Since 2001, I have been fully engaged in agricultural activities and also have investment in metals.
"I have vast land where I cultivate maize and other fruits for export in Kano."
We salute you, Eedris!
