Escort stops 9ice while attempting to greet Gov. Makinde, he reacts

Popular Nigerian singer, 9ice Alapomeji, experienced an awkward moment during a recent encounter with the escorts of the Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde.
In a video circulating widely on social media, the singer, whose real name is Abolore Akande, was seen attempting to greet Governor Makinde as they crossed paths along a walkway.
Spotting the governor, 9ice respectfully went down in a traditional Yoruba greeting gesture by prostrating, but was abruptly pushed back by one of the governorâs security aides.
Visibly frustrated, the singer reacted loudly but with a dose of humour, saying, âDonât push me, let me greet my father.â
His statement immediately caught the attention of Governor Makinde, who turned, smiled, and warmly exchanged pleasantries with the musician.
In a light-hearted moment, the governor responded with a friendly jab: âTry and be coming home,â referring to 9iceâs apparent absence from local engagements in Oyo State.
The clip has since gone viral, with many Nigerians praising 9ice for maintaining composure and choosing a respectful, humorous approach rather than escalating the situation.
A social media user, @mhiz_towo reacted: âHeâs a wise man, I love the way he turned it to humour.â
