Reggae-dancehall crooner, Patrick Nnaemeka Okorie aka Patoranking
May 27 was birthday of Nigerian reggae-dancehall crooner, Patrick Nnaemeka Okorie, professionally known as Patoranking.
That was the day the popular singer, songwriter and dancer from Onicha, Ebonyi State turned 31, and his friend of many years and equally music star, Burna Boy rattled him with raw cash.
During the well-attended birthday bash, the Grammy award winner brought out wads of cash from a bag, but instead of spraying like other celebrities would do, he just handed over the bundles believed to be close to a million naira, to Patoranking.
And was the birthday boy shocked? Shock is an understatement. His face clearly showed that the “Alubarika” star who was born, bred and buttered in Ijegun part of Lagos was indeed rattled.
