The Wale Olomu Memorial Awards (WOMA) will return for its second edition on Saturday, December 21, 2024.
This year’s program, themed “Celebrating the Living, Hidden Gems of Nigerian Entertainment,” will shine a spotlight on unsung industry figures who have contributed immensely to Nigeria’s entertainment sector.
The event will kick off with a Roundtable on Saturday, December 14, featuring discussions by renowned industry professionals, including musicians, producers, marketers, promoters, and a legal expert in entertainment.
Set to run for an hour and a half, the panel will address “Building a Broad-Based Safety Nets for Veteran & Indigent Practitioners.”
Notably, the roundtable will also be broadcast on “The Vintage Talkshow” on Top Radio FM 90.9, anchored by Femi Akintunde-Johnson.
Award presentations will follow a dedicated two-hour live broadcast December 21.
According to Tokunbo Ojekunle, the chairman of the WOMA Steering Committee, categories under consideration include Lifetime Achievement Awards and Special Recognition Awards, celebrating individuals such as music producers, sound engineers, session operators, studio/stage/artiste managers, and instrumentalists who have often gone unrecognised for their contributions.
