Popular Nigerian hip-hop veteran and lyricist, Panshak Zamani, famously known as Ice Prince, has addressed the heavy public backlash that trailed his controversial musical performance at the 2026 All Progressives Congress (APC) national convention.
The hip-hop artist faced intense digital scrutiny and condemnation from fans who berated him for entertaining political elites at a partisan event during a time of escalating national insecurity and severe economic hardship, rather than using his massive platform to demand institutional accountability.
Reacting to the wave of criticism during a recent appearance on the *Black Box* podcast, Ice Prince clarified that his decision to perform was entirely driven by deep-rooted family ties rather than political alignment or financial greed.

He revealed that the individual who officially booked him for the convention was the newly minted APC National Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda, who is his biological uncle.
Defending his attendance, Ice Prince asserted that Chairman Yilwatda is not just a random political figure to him, but a real family relation whom he felt obligated to support, urging critics to separate familial loyalty from partisan politics.
