Anambra entertainers to revive night life

The Association of Anambra State Entertainment Practitioners (AASEP), comprising  Nollywood actors, musicians, comedians, stage performers, masters of ceremonies, dancers and footballers as well as disc jockies to mention but a few, at the end of its general congress, resolved to revive night life in Anambra State.

The association lamented that night life was at point zero in the state, saying everywhere was dull at dawn, vowing to restore the night life in the state through grand events.

The meeting held at the VIP lounge, Nourisha Restuarant, beside Golfins Hotels, Awka, was attended by Professor Laz Ekwueme, traditional ruler of Oko as the royal father of the day and member of the Board of Trusty of the association.

The association resolved to organise four events in the state that would revive night life and create about ten thousand (10,000) jobs and to bury their three members, Amaka Igwe, Ozoemena Nsugbe and Lizzy Ogbodo ,who died recently in a grand way,  adding that it would soon host a programme in partnership with  Governor Willie Obiano government to honour Anambra stars and crown its ambassadors.

The entertainers resolved to be united and always speak with one voice at all times, and to support Governor Willie Obiano in the fight against crime and in his plans to secure the state to ensure night life was  restored in the state for fun.

AASEP, in its 8-point communique signed by the National Sectary of the association, Stanley Chira, at the end of the meeting , resolved as follows:-
