Olumati Isaiah Weighs In on Port Harcourt Comedians vs Musicians Debate

The recent tension between comedians and musicians in Port Harcourt continues to spark conversation across the city’s entertainment ecosystem.

It all began after comedian GSN (Ekwubiri Godson) appeared on a podcast and made comments that prompted a wave of reactions, leading to musicians being invited on the same platform to air their perspectives.

In a strong-worded reaction, Olumati Isaiah, a respected media consultant and talent manager, shared his thoughts on the exchange, particularly criticizing a musician who had belittled GSN and his mentor.

“That other guy on the podcast who called GSN and his boss ‘children’—isn’t he the same one-hit wonder that faded faster than a shadow in daylight?” Olumati said.

He further recalled an incident involving the musician years ago during an entertainment conference organized by Kobaba Jornsen, where the artist allegedly interrupted a session led by Mr. Isaac Utere.

“He was at the back screaming, ‘Leave all this talk. Wetin we wan hear now na how to blow.’ That was his contribution,” Olumati remarked.

Questioning the artist’s impact, he continued:

“What is his value—then or now—in the Port Harcourt entertainment space? My last artist has more relevance than his entire career, past and future.”

He went on to defend GSN and his mentor, highlighting their long-term contributions to comedy in the region.

“GSN’s boss has raised over 20 comedians—40% of whom earn six figures today. He’s sustained a solid career and is still growing strong after two decades. So, for someone with little to no track record to call them children is simply laughable.”

The back-and-forth reflects a deeper conversation about mutual respect, longevity, and value in the Port Harcourt creative community. Whether it leads to deeper collaboration or further division remains to be seen.

CHRONICLES OF PORT HARCOURT SUGAR MUMMIES

Sugar Mummy of Port Harcourt will invite you to church before inviting you to a party and then any other thing.

They mostly attend the church at Birabi Street . A great number attend Anglican, others are Catholics. An impressive thing about them is their religiosity. You will mistake them for successful pastors.

Sugar Mummies of Port Harcourt love to move around in cars with muscles; 4 runners, tundra or Ford trucks. A fraction drive Lexus RX 330. Rarely do you find them slim but some are. You can't decide to dump her and go free but this is largely dependent on where she is from. Some can end you just a day after saying "I nor do again" and it won't make the news.

If she is from Rivers South-East, she is an oil bunkerer with boys who work for her. Most of them from this area, especially from Tai or Gokana can fall in love with you, on their way to your house, buy foodstuffs and make you some nice native soup. She won't tell you about her husband but you will Code everything if you have sense. She can even cry for you irrespective of the fact that her son is almost your age. She buys you things on demand and doesn't engage in frivolous spending or partying. She is very reserved and saves your name on her phone as oil business and wouldn't like it that you are working. She doesn't want to see you with any other girl.

If she is from Rivers East, she is probably a director in one of the ministries or permanent secretary or just a political figure with contact. She has you and 3 other boys. Always on low cut with lines on her hair. Perhaps, her family has land. She will gift you two plots but will collect same from you if you misbehave. She will promise you government contract, perhaps NDDC and always changes meeting venues. Her son, not her husband, is your greatest foe. Maybe some archiva who still commands street respect from trigger-happy boys. It is very dangerous saying "I nor do again"

Rivers West? You are made. She likes you more if you drink. Will Likely introduce you to her daughters but don't overstep with them. She hates you idle, so she fixes you in one company like that and buys you a Toyota corolla to ease your movement. She is likely an heiress who is trained in the act of incubating businesses, likes classy places like hotel presidential. Will periodically fly you out of town to Abuja or Lagos for a weekend groove. She doesn't care where you live but will make sure you stay at a comfortable place. Don't talk about work stress when you with her. She can take you and your girlfriend out and even take her out for shopping.

If she is from across the border, say Akwa Ibom, then she runs a restaurant or perhaps couple of restaurants and only have time during the weekend. She doesn't care if you have a job or not. Her goal is pleasure.

If she from across Imo River, then she is the pious Catholic and she drives RX 330. Husband prolly has a building material shop at Mile 3 or a factory at Trans Amadi and she is a banker. Your weekend is for her taking. Will prolly give you 1.5 million to start a trade and that is all. She can call you up in the day to send her 2k MTN card to test your loyalty. Always calling you to buy her food from her favourite eatery and bring to her office.

RIVERS WOMEN INTENSIFY PRAYERS FOR PEACE, INTERCEDE FOR INSURGENCY-PRONE STATES

…Call for reinstatement of Gov. Fubara
…Commend First Lady for intervention in troubled states

The Rivers Women Prayer Group, under the auspices of Rivers Women Unite for SIM, has intensified its weekly intercessory prayers for sustained peace in Rivers State and divine intervention in states ravaged by insurgency and banditry across Nigeria.

At their prayer session held on Thursday, July 10, 2025, at the Ecumenical Centre in Port Harcourt, the women fervently prayed for the total restoration of peace in troubled states, including Benue, Borno, Plateau, Nasarawa, Yobe, and Zamfara.

They emphasized that insecurity in any part of Nigeria poses a threat to the safety and progress of the entire nation.

The group commended the First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, for her humanitarian interventions, particularly her donation of relief materials to displaced persons in affected regions, describing her efforts as a noble demonstration of leadership and compassion.

While expressing gratitude for the return of political stability in Rivers State, the women offered prayers for the complete restoration and strengthening of democratic governance in the state, calling for the immediate reinstatement of Governor Siminalayi Fubara.

They noted that peace has taken root and encouraged citizens to continue praying and collaborating for the advancement and unity of the state.

The women also gave thanks to God for the visible peace and renewed spirit of togetherness among political leaders in the state, praying that such unity will be sustained for the greater good of the people.

Several members shared testimonies of divine intervention in both the affairs of the state and their personal lives, attributing these breakthroughs to the power of corporate prayers.

Reaffirming their commitment to sustained intercession, the women declared that the same God who called them to the altar of prayer remains faithful.

They acknowledged that it is His presence and guidance that continue to inspire their mission to stand in the gap for Rivers State and the entire nation, confident that God hears and answers prayers.

A New Dawn of Peace and Progress in Rivers State

I wish to sincerely appreciate His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for his timely and decisive intervention in the recent political crisis that rocked Rivers State.

My profound gratitude also goes to the Honourable Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Chief (Barr.) Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, CON, GSSRS, for his fatherly role in ensuring a peaceful resolution.

To His Excellency, our amiable Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, GSSRS, and his deputy, Her Excellency, Professor Ngozi Nma Odu, I salute your courage, resilience, and unwavering commitment to putting the interests of the Rivers people first. Your bravery in the face of adversity has been a beacon of hope for all who yearn for good governance and accountable leadership.

I also commend the Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Martin Amaewhule, and his colleagues for rising to the occasion and giving peace a chance.

It is truly fulfilling to witness Rivers State back on track, unified and focused on the actualisation of our shared prosperity. The path ahead is one of development, progress, and inclusive governance. As citizens and stakeholders, we must continue to uphold the values of peace, dialogue, and collective responsibility.

Long live Rivers State.

Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
