... _As Gordons, Kevin Sapp, Others Attend_

The umbrella body of comedians in the FCT, the Abuja Body of Comedians (ABC) on Sunday, 8th January, 2023 hosted a dinner reception for its members where industry players x-rayed the performance of that sub-sector of entertainment in the past year and ways it could be enhanced better for efficiency.

The reception which took place at TSC Garden Area 3, behind UBA Bank was hosted by the president of the body, Onome da Saint.

Addressing the Abuja comedians, Onome Da Saint (Onome Ohwodo) praised them for being part of efforts to reposition entertain in Abuja and the country at large.

He said the body under his leadership will continue to advocate for decency and maturity even while entertaining guests at events, noting that the body is aware of various categories of audience at social functions and will continue to uphold maturity in its activities.

A popular radio presenter and MC, Ben 200 (Benjamin Ubiri) Station Manager - We FM said the ABC must begin to expand its tentacles by reaching partnership deals with radio stations within the FCT to attract publicity which he said the industry needs to thrive.

He said the comedy sub-sector of entertainment is gaining new steam in Abuja which must be sustained through adequate publicity, even as he noted that it has generated employment opportunities directly and indirectly to teeming young people.

Also speaking, the national president of Association of Beauty Pageant and Fashion Exhibition Organisers of Nigeria, ABPFEON, Mr. Olufunsho Ajagbonna popularly known as King Fajag said as a showbiz industry, the entertainers should begin to pay attention to the business aspect of their craft for optimum performance.

Mr Idowu Olusayero, A representative and CEO of Option A Media, a leading brand in screen lighting and sound urged the entertainers to make more investment in their brands to meet the dynamic needs of fun-seekers in the nation's capital.

A public relations practitioner and the CEO Amity Global, Mr. Alex Nwankwo, popularly known as AlexReports appealed to event organisers to take every aspect of publicity with the utmost seriousness.

He said media visibility especially in the new media is very critical as it satisfies the crave of event sponsors. He called on the ABC to shun the temptation of not taking after-event publicity seriously as a way of continuously attracting goodwill especially from sponsors.

Others that spoke extensively are Amb. Wahala (Lukmon Oni) - VP -Abuja Body of Comedians, Dj Kool (Tade Adeyemi) National President - DJ Association of Nigeria (DJAN), 20 Mouth (Ugochukwu Ohuonu) Mayor of Abuja -Actors Guild of Nigeria (Abuja Chapter) and Gordons (Godwin Komone).

I have someone who has a spare car in Lagos that has been parked for over 3 years without use.

I don't know if he can allow you use it in Abuja. But you can give it a shot.

I believe if you can maintain the car and give him nice returns weekly, he can dash you the car completely.

Where are the comedians here ?
Oh! I see Alex report na comedian
