ABUJA, NIGERIA – Recently, the Nigeria Skits Industry Awards team along with Honourable Bimbo Daramola visited Honourable Shina Peller – Member – House of Representatives, representing Iseyin, Itesiwaju, Kajola, Iwajowa Federal constituencies, to discuss the upcoming first-ever Nigeria Skits Awards, which aims to recognise, reward and inspire young skit acts who have enriched the Nigerian entertainment landscape.
He declared support and said, “I am fully in”. He further mentioned that it will be impossible to do this without his input in the light of his relationship with numerous skit artistes that dates back ages.
Honourable Peller’s took to his Instagram handle to further state:
Nigeria needs to start investing in its creative industry, a knowledge-based economy. That is the new oil. Human capital is the driver of creativity and more attention should be given to talents for them to excel. An enabling environment is necessary for this to happen. It’s nice to know that these young folks, their talent, creativity, and hardwork are all being recognised in this form corporately. This is what I have committed myself to as an individual overtime, not only for Skits artistes or this genre but my humble imprint cuts across the Nigerian Entertainment landscape. It’s a new day for the industry, the practitioners. See you all at the Nigeria Skits Awards.
