ADENUGA PICKS SUNNY ADE FOR EVERGREEN

Come 28th February, Lagos will pulse beneath the rave and glitter of crystal chandeliers and neon lights, little gilt chairs and artfully placed mirrors. Rich neon lights and exotic prisms will glow on every side. The bold decor and grandness of the event will vividly project the hum of human ingenuity. And all these brilliance and wonder shall be attributed to none other than Globacom owned by the Champion, Dr. Mike Adenuga, Jnr.The leading telecommunications company, Globacom has unveiled plans for the second edition of its special music concert, “Glo Evergreen series” which is dedicated to honour legendary Nigerian musicians for their outstanding performances and contributions to the development and growth of the nation’s music industry.

Curiously, however, the second edition of Glo Evergreen Series is dedicated to King Sunny Ade, the music maestro and legendary composer for his consistency in the past 50 years and contribution to the juju music genre. And the special concert will hold at the prestigious Intercontinental Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos on February, 28th with King Sunny Ade as the headline act. The night will feature a blend of classic and contemporary music as the Koko master and talented entertainer, D’ Banj, and top saxophonist Yemi Sax, will join King Sunny Ade on stage to entertain the guests.The first Glo Evergreen Series honoured Chief Ebenezer Obey, one of the juju music legends in Nigeria in “a night of fun, glamour, glitz and good music” on September 28, 2013. Chief Obey, in collaboration with M.I and Yemi Sax, thrilled the audience, comprising captains of industries, top government officials and Globacom’s premium subscribers. According to Globacom, it “is a celebration of Nigerian music and true values of the legend on parade.” King Sunny Ade’s fans who cut across the young, industrialists, top administrators, socialites and political aficionados are expected as special guests at the event which the organizers say is strictly by invitation.”This event is organized primarily to honour and reward Globacom’s high networth subscribers. It is our modest way of saying thank you to them for their massive support”.The Glo Evergreen Series holds quarterly and each edition features a music legend that will play alongside young and talented popular musicians.
