FUNKE AKINDELE AND YAW TO RAISE THE BAR

Successful yoruba actress, Funke Akindele-Oloyede and popular OAP Steve Onu, also known as Yaw are becoming some brands’ choice comperes. And if anyone has noticed, they anchored many events last year and now this year they will hopefully anchor more, but beyond that, the talented pair have something up their sleeves.

Few weeks after Yaw had the premiere of his new TV sitcom called – ‘Yaw’s n’ Myn’, at the Silverbird Cinemas, the producer and actor has actor is out with another creative programme.

Titled ‘The Bar’, the 2-man play which also stars Funke Akindele-Oloyede will be staged at Muson Center, Onikan on 6th March, 2013. Billed to be present at the show are top music acts like Iyanya, MI as well as comedians.

According to Yaw, the play is not your conventional comedy show but, it’s more of a ‘satire. “I believe a satire should be like a rubber sword. It doesn’t pierce like a real sword would; but the person it touches will definitely feel the impact.

The audience should expect twists and turns in the performances, suggestive innuendos and plenty of meanings in between the lines of the script. But they should also expect to laugh, because at the end of the day, it is comedy.” He affirmed.

'CRACK YA RIBS' TO MARK 12TH ANNIVERSARY IN ABUJA

Illustrious entertainer, Julius Agwu will on September 30th storm Transcorp Hilton Abuja for the 2012 edition of the annual Crack Ya Ribs show.

With the great turnouts of the show in America and Europe this year with impressive line-up of entertainers, residents of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja and environs are in for great surprises.

For over a decade, Crack Ya Ribs has always been an exhilarating night of sophisticated music, dance and comedy that has featured some of the best entertainers in the music industry like D'Banj, Timaya, P-Square, 9ice and others.

Entertainers billed to perform at Crack Ya Ribs Abuja are Timaya, Inyanya, Funny Bone, Senator, I Go Die, Dan D'Humorous, Osama and Tripple White. As always, Julius Agwu will play his role as the host of the show with his rib cracking jokes.

Speaking concerning the Abuja concert, Julius said "the Abuja edition of this year's Crack Ya Ribs is my independence gift to Nigerians as we return after the summer tour. Not forgetting the fact that this year marks 12 years of Crack Ya Ribs and it has been repackaged with some fresh ideas to keep the brand going.

We have made it bigger by turning it to the event to a Pan-African event and that informed why there were performances from Ghanaian leading music and comedy stars at the London show. With our current plans for the Abuja show, lovers of quality entertainment are in for a good time".

After hosting the show annually for over a decade in London, Crack Ya Ribs held for the first time this year in Glasgow, New York, Dallas and Houston. Crack Ya Ribs once held in Atlanta and the massive yearning for the return of the show to America brought about the three cities tour in America.

Having earned his stripes as far entertainment business is concerned; Julius Agwu remains one of the most sought after comedians in Africa. His comedy concerts are always hilarious and fun filled.
