PMAN GOVERNORSHIP!!! Romeo Nyamatsa, Sydney Sparrow Lock Horns As FCT PMAN Elects New Leadership

Arrangements have been concluded for the election of new EXCO for Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria (PMAN) FCT chapter with two front runners for office of the governor getting set to test their popularity.

They are, Benue-born entertainer Romeo Terhile and his co-contestant, Sparrow.

The election is scheduled to hold on September 12 and is the first in a long time, an effort targeted to revive the FCT chapter of PMAN.

A popular musician, Dovie Mena (Baba 2010)
has for some time been the sole administrator of the chapter, even though not much has been heard about the activities of his office.

Romeo Terhile Nyamatsa whose running mate was formerly Angel Twani but recently changed to Precious Chinyere Emehelu has vowed to transform the FCT chapter of the body if elected the governor.

Born in Logo LGA of Benue in 1989, Romeo is the CEO of Frontline14 Entertainment an indigenous Entertainment company.

He said his aim, along with his running mate is to leave behind, a PMAN that will for all-time, cater sustainably to the actual and aspirational needs of everyone whose interest is situated no matter how subliminal within the FCT music constituency.

His manifesto partly reads, "To achieve our legacy intentions for PMAN FCT chapter, a central recognized PMAN secretariat is long overdue to manage the interest of PMAN in Nigeria’s Federal Capital City.

"Anyone in all the six (6) Area Councils of the FCT who is not a registered member of PMAN, but whose primary constituency is music, will be tracked using promotional impact vehicles and encouraged to take advantage of the governance structures within PMAN, to actualize their musical aspirations.

"We will work round the clock, to grow a PMAN that can interface productively with government and private sector interests in the FCT for the interest of PMAN, until PMAN FCT chapter becomes synonymous with excellence in the music and creative services industry.

"The dreams of our founding forebears, was to build a body of musicians who will be relevant, recognized and valued for their invaluable contribution to the coherence of society at large.

"It is our earnest and humble intention to drive the administration of PMAN interests in the FCT, to enviable heights, leaving a functional PMAN behind, for succeeding PMAN administrations in the FCT chapter."

Sparrow has Kaycee Kline as his running mate and is very active in the showbiz industry.

He is a live band specialist who is also into music and movies production.

He has remained consistent and one of the most sought-afters in Abuja in matters concerning live band.

He enjoys a grassroot support among artistes in Abuja and beyond and not long ago got married to popular OAP, Adaora Onyechere of AIT.

His running mate Kaycee Kline is one of the managers of Blake Excellence Resort, a live band artiste who has also made a name for himself in the industry.

His manifesto covers the issues of Musicians residing in Abuja and bridging the gap between the association , stakeholders and government, bringing visibility to the budding talents of musicians within the FCT and help develop their talents and curating the works of musician , build a data driven musicology of all Abuja based musicians for Archival documentation and historical reference .

Highlighting most critical areas of intervention if elected, he said, "PMAN FCT secretariat( For over 20 years PMAN has been unable to have an official functional space for the convergence of artistes and meetings)

"The Need to expand visibility through deliberate partnerships with the FCT as a major stakeholder.

"The Consideration for a synchronized welfare system for struggling artistes. 

"To generate viable interventions to help and support revenue generation for Musicians in the FCT especially Host communities and indigenes who are musicians within the FCT. 

"To work effectively to collaborate with the National to promote the mandate of PMAN

"To build A PMAN that resonates and accommodates the interest of all music groups, talents, personalities and genres.

"To support The FCT administration using PMAN as partners to promote the activities of the FCT administration."

Analysts have said it would be a keenly contested exercise with the groundswell of interest it is currently generating.

Politics / Minister Of Youth: Why Not Professor Imumolen, That Youngest Presidential Candid by Afro3: 3:52pm On Aug 29, 2023
Minister Of Youth: Why Not Professor Christopher Imumolen, That Youngest Presidential Candidate - Nigerians Ask President Tinubu


As the current administration is paid to the task of constituting an effective team for the onerous job ahead, not mentioning Professor Christopher Imumolen, that iconic Youth Presidential candidate in the last election would be a deafening silence.
There is certainly no gainsaying that His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had prudently built a ministerial team, a composition of men of diverse political and leadership history poised to pursue distinction against all odds.
Recall that in the build up to this momentum, and against the post victory speech of the President which carried pacifying promises for all expectant patriots, especially as he assured inclusiveness and thorough youth representation, high expectations were triggered , particularly because the major concern of Nigerians was how the nation will escape her fearful predicament.

Though the president and his team had obviously explored diligence and clairvoyance in their choices of who and who occupied the ministerial seats, many a citizens remain astonished that the person of Professor Christopher Imumolen, who flew the flag of Accord in that heated contest, as the youngest Presidential candidate (39 then) has yet to be considered for a place in this all important leadership, happening at a time that citizens, and indeed, the country need true patriots and rising statesmen at the helms of affairs.
During the 2023 electioneering campaigns, Professor Imumolen dazzled as the only youth representative in the presidential race that brandished a fascinating profile .

His Curriculum Vitae was dotted with dumbfounding academic attainments and colossal socio economic strides.
It appealed to Nigerians , youths especially, that a young man had lifted fellow citizens from the quagmires of educational and sundry economic challenges.
That a scholarship scheme which had since inception catalysed academic empowerment of over 500,000 thousand Nigerians(prevalently youths) ; and that through his foundation, countless millionaires were made to depopulate the densely characterized region of the downtrodden appeared like cross disciplinary and extra terrestrial feats by a young man whose only afrodisiac or driving force(if you like) was patriotism and a penchant to be outstanding in pursuing nation building goals.
And of course testimonies of his impacts abound in virtually all the states of the federation, including the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.

More so, his empowerment relief that touched even the lives of those incarcerated in the various correctional centres, even those unfortunately inhabiting the Internally Displaced Persons camps will continue to speak volumes of his charitable deeds across the strata of the nation.
It was this states man like attributes that fueled his presidential ambition where he was juxtaposed with older gladiators.

A tech savvy leadership ideologist and social technocrat driven by sheer national integration and development consciousness (which was why his personal political mantra was 'All for All' ), Professor Imumolen had always maintained that the peaceful and progressive coexistence of Nigerians is sacrosanct and outweighs every other consideration.
This he had held close to his chest, so much so that his recent call in private and public discourses has been the need for all hands to be on deck as the Nigerian state meanders through her many challenges towards the shore of prosperity - a destination he is sure is attainable via patriotic commitments by both leaders and the led irrespective of ethno religious and political delineations.

It is on these premises that a concerted prayer is being made by youths of thought and various leadership observers for a Presidential Consideration that will grant this iconic rising Statesman a place in this crucial dispensation to serve Nigeria, an opportunity they are trustful, will afford him the political strength to make a whole lot of difference and to contribute to meaningfully to this govt which inherited a myriad of socio economic problems that must be tackled in the urgency of now.

Celebrities / Esther Nwankwo: Coordinator Of MBMN Marks 30th Birthday With Stunning Photos by Afro3: 8:55am On Aug 11, 2023
Abuja Queen Mother And Coordinator Of Most Beautiful Model In Nigeria Marks Birthday With Stunning Photos


In a world where beauty, intelligence, and success often seem worlds apart, there exist extraordinary women who effortlessly embody them all, redefining brilliance and beauty, and proving that you can shatter glass ceilings while nurturing a loving family.

One of such epitomes of skin-deep beauty is Mrs Esther Nwankwo. Mrs Nwankwo journey is one that sets her apart, beams the light on her, and makes her endearing, not only for her physical beauty but for all she represents.

Born 11 August 1993, Mrs Nwankwo had her Primary and Secondary education in Lagos State. She obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Microbiology at Elizade University, Ondo State, after serving in the Student Union Government as the Public Relations Officer and Events Organiser.

Exceptional Career Path And Recognitions

The question In the minds of many has been how she comes off as a woman of many talents, but for a fellow who branched the banking, health sector among several other sectors in the course of her career, it only suffices to say that she is a woman of countless potential who has emerged as a beacon of inspiration for the women-fold.

A remarkable moment in her journey was 2016, one year she displayed an unwavering determination while undergoing the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme: from being recognized with the "FCT Youth Corper of the Year 2016 (Nigerian Entrepreneurship Award)," to serving as a lead Project Coordinator at the Churchill Foundation, owned by Nigerian Business Mogul and Philanthropist, Olakunle Oladunni Churchill.

In the runup to the Anambra Governorship election in 2017, Mrs Nwankwo worked with Prince Donatus Okonkwo and his campaign team as the logistics director. In her journey, she equally led as a multimedia executive with Godwin Maduka Foundation.

As a result of her skills and expertise in event planning and interior decoration, she held the position of Sales & Banqueting Coordinator, at The Wells Carlton Hotel and Apartments, Abuja, a role which also earned her "The Wells Carlton Best Employee of the Year 2019 (Annual staff recognition)", yet another feat that speaks volumes of just how committed she is: a go-getter par excellence. She also bagged the "NGO of the Year 2017 (Nigerian Goodwill Ambassador Award)."

A Luminary On Stage With A Heartwarming Tale Of Love And Support

At the climax of her voyage was Joining Amity Global Network, an integrated marketing and communication company as the Public Relations Officer and Event Coordinator while she was a Corper. Mrs Nwankwo outperformed her assigned role, taking up in whole, the running of the brand at a point when her boss, now her husband, was unfit to man the activities of the brand in his capacity as the Chief Executive Officer, due to an accident which resulted in a partial memory loss. Her astute business acumen has not only earned her husband's venture multimillion-naira deals, but it has also continued to maintain client relationships for the brand.

Her unwavering brilliance and impact aside from standing her out, endeared her to Husband. I mean, no man would ignore such an amazing woman who had the chance to ruin her boss's business, or let it suffer, the least, but instead maintained the status quo with unalloyed consistency and competence, an act that has earned the brand honours and awards. This explains why they only did not end up as a couple, but she currently holds the prestigious position of the Vice Chairman of Amity Global Network. Courtesy of her, clients currently enjoy top-notch audio-visual PR content brand promotion and marketing, where she is well positioned as an on-air personality, deploying her excellent communication skills.

In the glitz and glamour of the pageantry world, she is referred to as a "Queen Mother" who has groomed many models under the Amity Global brand. Armed with a razor-sharp intellect, she coordinated the "Most Beautiful Model in Nigeria Pageantry", one of the 3 pageantries in Nigeria that were verified on Wikipedia, owned by Amity Global Network, a testament to her insatiable thirst for excellence and personal growth.

In a world that often tries to limit women, she stands tall, proving that beauty, brilliance, and success are not mutually exclusive. As a radiant beauty queen, a nurturing mother, and a devoted wife, Mrs Nwankwo has shattered stereotypes with her innate ability to strike a harmonious balance between her personal and professional life, committing to her family's happiness and success - a devout mother of two who juggles the demands of motherhood, her own aspirations, and her role in her husband's business. She adores her husband and extends wholesome love to family and business associates without keeping count of any wrongs.

At different points in her life, she has had to pause her own dreams to ensure her husband's dreams flourished, standing in perfectly every time there was the need to. She serves as his rock; a leg upon which her husband stood, and is still standing. Together, they form a formidable power-couple, inspiring others to believe in the limitless possibilities that love and support can bring.

The beauty of a young wife shines brightest when she supports her husband's dreams with her intellect and unconditional love. There is no gainsaying that he who finds a wife, indeed, finds a good thing and obtains favour from the Lord.

After Receiving Attacks From Listeners, Abuja Popular Radio Presenter Says "No Regret Supporting Tinubu"

One of Abuja's finest radio personalities, Oni Lukuman Olanrewaju popularly known as Amb. Wahala has said he has no regret supporting then APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu during the elections, saying he has freedom of association.

This was in reaction to the avalanche of personal attacks he has received from some Abuja residents who participate during phone-in programmes.

They accuse him of supporting a candidate that failed to show up for debates but was rather insisting that it is his turn to lead.

According to some of the callers, the removal of subsidy on petrol, along with its effects on inflation has demonstrated why Tinubu was not a candidate to be supported.

The callers accuse him of supporting Tinubu for pecuniary gains, an allegation he has denied and maintained that he was convinced that the President means well for Nigeria and still upholds such belief.

In his reaction on Friday, Amb. Wahala known for mimicking former First Lady, Patience Jonathan said Nigeria needs leaders with political will like President Tinubu to set it on the path of progress.

He called on Nigerians to be patient with the current government, expressing optimism that the hardship associated with the fuel subsidy removal will soon be a thing of the past and its gains blossom.

The entertainer anchors Toriwowo on 104.5 Love FM Abuja.

The broadcast journalist cum comedian recently made a return to the airwaves after a year long break from behind the microphone.

Amb. Wahala thrills Abuja radio lovers with latest news, gossip, entertain, politics sports and more.

He commands a large listenership base.
