Not just for the fact that the passion orchestrates her pathway to studying music resulting in a degree from the prestigious Obafemi Awolowo University, Abiola Ogedengbe once known by the stage name B’zee which later transformed to the now popular alter ego “Nino” has been dictating her narratives in music industry for over eight years- she’s shaping up to become one of the pop performer to reckon with.

“I started music in 2010 while I was seeking admission into university. My love grew more in just one day while I was in my summer lesson, so much that I totally lost interest in doing any other thing that day. Although the music had been in me right from time because my dad thought I was going to be a dancer and he always tried his best to scare me away from entertainment – he wanted me to be a doctor” –Nino
