*WHY WE BROUGHT HER ON BOARD

Willie workman Oga is not a name that needs any formal introduction before taking his place of pride in the annals of Nigeria’s show business world

Workman is an old Trojan that is among the biggest players in the industry. Reputed to have discovered and shaped the 2 face, Black face brands of now defunct PLANTATION BOYZ musical group. He was the first artist manager they ever had that brought them to limelight and took care of their career and recording sessions. He was chiefly the originator and idea behind the hit son , AFRICAN QUEEN

Workman is a hard working machine that derives joy in what he does, now silently working to turn the image of showbiz around in Nigeria and Africa through his ekl recordz, and his pet project, called MS ENTREPRENEUR Africa (MENAF) 2013

An event that is a competition of empowerment with an initiative to search for young married or single African women between the ages of 18 to 30 with innovative and viable entrepreneurial business plan that will create employment, and contribute to the economic development and eradication of poverty in the continent. MENAF is slated for July 11, 2013 in Lagos Nigeria. MENAF is Organized by Entertainment Konzult Ltd and Women In Africa Forum.

But chief of the magic wand is his introduction of an international brand like Sarah Mercer as his vice president.

She is not a small fry, her profile spells fire, with a sound pedigree

Says Workman Oga on her coming on board,’’ We are bringing her on board because we want to prove to the world that we mean business and

 since this is an international event, her wealth of experience is not an experience that can be toyed with, instead it will open massive international doors for us’’ Oga admitted
