Banky W, Teni, others for Nigeria’s first-ever prom concert

SINGERS Banky W, Teni and Mavin’s new signee Rema are set to thrill graduating secondary school students at the first-ever prom concert in Nigeria tagged “AfroProm” holding at Eko Hotel, Convention Centre, Lagos on July 14, 2019.

The event is put together to give Nigerian students an opportunity to experience prom, while celebrating, networking, and partying with a host of Nigeria’s top-rated celebrities.

Speaking on Afroprom, lead project manager at J. Vanni Global, Mobola Abiru, said: “We created Afroprom, Nigeria’s first-ever prom concert for high school graduates between the ages of 14-18 with an eye on getting these teens to celebrate a remarkable achievement at a crucial stage of their lives. Prom is not new to them, they see it happen everywhere else but not in Nigeria. This spurred us to create an avenue that will welcome them into adult life.”

According to the organisers, renowned mediapreneur Debola Williams, and superstar musician and politician, Banky W, will be in attendance to inspire and educate the students on “next steps after school” by sharing authentic stories of their meteoric rise.

Guests will be treated to performances fit for the occasion by Teni, Rema, Donflex and the Extigate team, Dream Catchers; while Ushbebe, Ikorodu Bois and other comedians are expected to thrill the guest as well. Other side attractions include a rare five-course meal and a shot at the highly coveted Afroprom King & Queen crowns.

Tickets for the event will be hosted by ace OAP Jimmy, and are sold for N20, 000 and guests stand a chance to win gifts such as an iPhone XR, PlayStation 4, and lots more.
