From September 29 through Monday, October 2, 2017, celebrity
restaurant, O’jez, inside the National Stadium, Surulere Lagos will be treating
Lagosians to a four-day music, comedy, magic and dance festival as part of
activities set aside to celebrate this year’s Independence Day anniversary
which is on October 1.
“It will be the longest and unforgettable weekend Nigerians
will ever witness in a long time to come,” Chief Joseph Odobeatu, C.E.O, O’jez
Entertainment Group/Chain of Restaurants, said in a statement issued by his
media company, MIM.
The Independence groove according to Odobeatu will
begin on Friday with a show featuring a long list of comedians like
Elenu, MC Shakara who were one time in-house comedians of the outfit with the
host Elder O alongside ATM and MC Phrymzo. “Several dance groups will be on
parade with versatile young D.J Multy on parade to jam till the wee hours
of Saturday,” Odobeatu said adding that the next day will witness a
different set of artistes and a magician with host MC Phrymzo backed by Elder
O.
Sunday’s show will be the mother of all shows as Nollywood
stars Charles Inojie, Ejike Asiegbu, Zack Orji and Victor Osuagwu among others
will be on ground to meet up close and personal with people who have never had
the opportunity to see them off the screen. “I have decided to keep more
details of the Sunday and Mondayshows under wrap to, so all you
need to do is come to O’jez and have fun of a lifetime because this is a show
some people pay over N10, 000 to go and see on the island that we are serving
you FREE right here on the mainland along exotic drinks and foods that O’jez is
known for nationwide.”
Odobeatu, a sports enthusiast and owner of O’jez Table
Tennis Academy, is however calling on potential sponsors to key into this
amazing conduit to reach out to their clients. “We are in talks with a telecommunication
firm and an alcoholic beverages company has shown interest but nothing concrete
yet, so we are throwing it wide open for all to come on board and sponsor this
four-day musical carnival, something we have been doing alone for over 12 years
now. I assure the sponsor that it won’t regret being part of this event. And
before I forget, the Sunday event is designed to be a family affair
where families are encouraged to come in large numbers as there would be
dancing contest for the kids and couples game show for the parents with lots of
valuable prizes to be carted home. Last year, we gave out two plasma TV sets, a
microwave and cartons of O’jez wines, and to think we had no external sponsor.
So heavens will not fall if we get a sponsor and decide to give out a car to
the winner of the couples’ game,” he submitted.
