The expansive Michael Okpara Square, at the Independence Layout, Enugu was filled to the brim as Yudala Coalfest Zero overwhelms the city on Saturday, reports ITRealms.

The event, ITRealms gathered attracted a number of distinguished guests including the Governor of Enugu State, Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi; Deputy Governor, Hon Cecilia Ezeilo; Deputy Senate President, Dr. Ike Ekweremadu; Chairman, Zinox Group, Leo Stan Ekeh, Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, Enugu State, Hon. Rita Mbah as well as members of the Enugu State House of Assembly.

The Yudala Coalfest Zero Gravity, ITRealms gathered also attracted attendance figure of over 120,000 and saw the security forces struggling to contain the huge crowd present.

The event – which kicked off with a series of striking performances from a plethora of upcoming artistes – was remarkable in terms of the variety of entertainment on offer for the audience. From a nostalgia-inducing performance from One World, the Nigerian Afro-Rock Group of the 1970s who rolled back the years with a masterful delivery of some of their timeless songs, through the indigenous flavor delivered by a local flute player, the crowd gathered in the Michael Okpara Square were treated to a memorable night of sublime entertainment.

One after the other, the strong cast of artistes on the roll-call for the night took their turns to raise the excitement even higher.

Mr. Raw who led the way, did not disappoint as he churned out some of his most popular songs signposted by his latest release – Blessing – which had the crowd singing along. With David Grey delivering another well-choreographed performance and Naeto C taking the engagement levels even higher by mingling with the crowd, the atmosphere in the Michael Okpara was super-charged by the time the Osinachi crooner, Humblesmith took the stage with his live band to get everyone dancing to the pure sounds being dished out.

From then on, the event reached a fever-pitch with the introduction of Zoro whose dancers serenaded the audience with a gravity-defying dance routine of the hit song – Ogene. Zoro’s performance, which had the crowd asking for more, set the tone for Founder/Vice President, Yudala, Prince Nnamdi Ekeh to deliver a brief vote of thanks and introduce the night’s headline artiste, Flavour.

As expected, the talented singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist brought the event to a fitting close with a masterful performance featuring many of his most popular songs.

The weekend of activities by Yudala rounds off on Sunday November 6^th at the Michael Okpara Square with what is billed as the biggest Rock Gospel Concert ever witnessed in the South East featuring Frank Edwards, Sammie Okposo, Buchi, Chioma Jesus, Joe Praise, Steve Crown, Chinyere Udoma, Nkay and Gozie Okeke of Akanchawa fame, among others.

Ekeh, Obi, Nebo excite Enugu with Yudala Coalfest Zero

ITRealms:

Participants at the mega entrepreneurship summit organized by pioneer composite e-commerce outfit Yudala were excited with Yudala Coalfest Zero at the capital city of Enugu with the exciting thought-provoking interventions from Chairman, Zinox Group, Leo-Stan Ekeh and former Anambra State Governor, Dr. Peter Obi delivered unforgettable lessons in the art of street entrepreneurship, reports ITRealms.

The summit which held Friday, November 4th at the expansive Michael Okpara Square, Independence Layout, Enugu, was organized in partnership with the Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) and also attracted the Executive Governor of Enugu State, Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, the Deputy Governor, Hon. Cecilia Ezeilo, Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, Hon. Rita Mbah and former Minister of Power, Prof. Chinedu Nebo as Chairman at the occasion, among several other dignitaries.

In his keynote address, Ekeh who spoke extempore drew a resounding applause from the audience in the packed pavilion with a speech that drew extensively from his personal experiences and journey to success in the business terrain. According to Ekeh, discipline, integrity, focus, a commitment to take pains before pleasure and a close relationship with God remain indispensable ingredients to creating and sustaining wealth in contemporary society.

In his view, huge potential exists for Nigeria to raise a sizeable number of certified billionaires from the current generation of youth in view of their exposure, digital mind-set and desire to upgrade in life. He, however, lamented the crisis of values, clearly discernible among significant number of South Easterners as well the failure of many others who choose to rely on hand-outs or government support rather than take the initiative to generate sustainable wealth.

For Dr. Obi, who equally spoke extempore, the challenge many prospective entrepreneurs face today include, among others, lack of financial prudence, discipline, dishonesty and the absence of a sound ethical foundation which invariably leads to unsavoury practices which ultimately erode one’s credibility. Drawing from the examples of notable and successful entrepreneurs such as Bill Gates, Linda Ikeji and others, Dr. Obi advised the audience to embrace self-discovery and continuous personal development as a means of breaking through to business success. 

While heaping praises on Yudala which he described as a credible platform which many youths can leverage on, Dr. Obi disclosed that partnerships with such an ambitious and world-class organization can open the door to new wealth for many.

More encomiums went the way of Yudala from the Governor of Enugu State and Prof. Nebo, both of whom expressed their delight with the landmark impacts and huge investments being made by Yudala in its mission of empowering millions of Nigerian youths through its YUBOSS Scheme, which has recently received a N1.5B support from the Leo Stan Ekeh Foundation.

The well-attended event also witnessed the official presentation of YUBOSS, an entrepreneurship and wealth creation scheme set up by Yudala in partnership with Airtel and Access Bank by Founder/Vice President, Prince Nnamdi Ekeh who cited examples of success stories from individuals who had signed up to the YUBOSS platform and already earning mouth-watering commissions as partners of Yudala.

The weekend of activities by Yudala continues until Sunday, as the venue of the entrepreneurship summit – Michael Okpara Square – is set to host the Yudala Coalfest Zero Gravity Mega Music Concerts featuring a host of leading artistes, with a Contemporary Music Concert headlined by Flavour, Zoro, Nigga Raw, Naeto C, Humble Smith and others on Saturday November 5^th. This will be followed on Sunday November 6^th by what is being touted as the biggest Rock Gospel Concert ever witnessed in the South East featuring Frank Edwards, Sammie Okposo, Buchi, Chioma Jesus, Joe Praise, Steve Crown, Chinyere Udoma, Nkay and Gozie Okeke of Akanchawa fame, among others.
