The commemorative event, which is scheduled to hold
on December 18, 2013, at The Oceanview Restaurant,
Victoria Island, Lagos, promises to be a very befitting
and groundbreaking honour in memory of the
extraordinary life and unselfish contributions of one of the
greatest beacons of hope, inspiration and freedom to
ever walk the surface of this earth.
According to Funmi Victor-Okigbo, Chief Executive
Officer, No Surprises Events, "We'll ensure that the event
is orchestrated and executed to perfection according to
world-class standards."
For Mo Abudu, Chairman and CEO of EbonyLife TV, "It's
one of the least of things we can do as Nigerians,
Africans and Global Black citizens of the world to honour
a unique, caring and very humble global character."
She continues, "Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela lives on as a
beacon of hope and a true icon of inspiration; a man of
extraordinary vision who has left such a great legacy of
humanity that Africans and the rest of the world must
strive to aspire to. So we are indeed very proud to put
this together. It's a free concert for the expensive price of
liberty paid for by the selfless Madiba. We made a call to
the industry and we got really tremendous response. For
all our music stars and partners, we cannot thank you all
enough for your sacrifice, kindness and generosity,
which themselves typify the spirit of 'Ubuntu', which is
South African for humanity. God bless you all."
There is already a groundswell of activity and anticipation
about the event which already has everything it takes to
go down into history as a major rallying point for the
celebration of the life and legacy of the man, The Madiba.
