| Princes Akapo and Onatoye, organizers of the award |
SHOWBIZPLUSng exclusively gathered that after weeks of
brainstorming and widespread consultations, Dreamsplash Entertainment, the
organizers of the prestigious Independence Hall of Fame Award, have decided to
move the event forward to a new date, in order to make it bigger and better.
The Executive
Directors of Dreamsplash Entertainment and prime movers of the forthcoming
evening of high-net-worth gathering, Princes Rotimi Akapo and Adegbola Onatoye,
while speaking at a recent press conference at the upscale Lagoon Restaurant, Victoria
Island, Lagos, disclosed that the much awaited awards night, initially slated
for December 13, 2013, will now hold on October 10, 2014.
“This change in date was
due to some unforeseen circumstances beyond our control. We are sincerely sorry
for the inconvenience this new development might cost our corporate partners
and major sponsors. The essence is to expand the scope of the awards, make it
better, bigger and above all, give the organizers enough time to plan and have
a world class event that will be a reference point among award organizers. And
the venue remains posh Lagoon Restaurant on Ozumba Mbadiwe Street, Victoria Island,
Lagos.”
Also speaking, the
project’s consultant and Nollywood star, Mr. Segun Arinze further stated that
the event was painfully moved forward in order to adjust grey areas in the planning
and also enable the organisers have an event of international standard.
Arinze, fondly called Black
Arrow, assured guests and sponsors alike of good tales to take home at the
event proper that will be graced by Nigerians from all walks of life.
He urged voters and well
wishers to visit the official site of the award http://www.independencehalloffame.org.ng, for
more information and how to participate.
