   The popular Tv Music channel, MTV Base, has rendered unreserved apology to Nigerians over the list of  “best naija songs ever” it aired on Nigeria’s Independence Day.
In a press statement by the TV's publicist, BHM, the Vice-President, Alex Okosi, on behalf of the music station regretted the development.
He reads......


“We understand that the positioning could have been misleading on some of our platforms and we regret any confusion caused.
“As a brand, we acknowledge and respect the fact that Nigeria has a long music history beyond the last 10 years and our work since launching MTV Base is to help develop and showcase the best of Nigerian and African music to a global audience.
      The “Best Naija Tracks Ever on MTV Base” campaign is really about celebrating the new generation of talent who have benefited from the legends who paved the way for their successes today.
“The list of artistes and songs featured in the programme was determined by viewers of MTV Base, who voted via the MTV Base website www.mtvbase.com to choose their musical favourites starting from the channel’s launch on 22 February, 2005 till the present day,”
