Wale Adenuga MFR, Chairman of Wale Adenuga Productions (WAP)
Ltd., was recently honoured as the Best African TV Producer at the 6th Edition
of the prestigious African Achievers Awards, which took place on Friday, July
8, 2016, at the International Conference Centre, Abuja.
Since the First Edition took place in 2011 in London, the
African Achievers Awards (AAA) has been consistent in honouring great African
Achievers in diverse fields. Some of which include Jakaya Kikwete, the then
President of Tanzania; Arch Bishop Desmond Tutu, South African social rights activist and
retired Anglican bishop; Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN), former Governor of Lagos
State and current Minister of Power, Works and Housing; Lulu Louis Mnguni,
South Africa’s High Commissioner to Nigeria; Dr Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma,
Chairperson of African Union; Ali Baba, A-List Nigerian Comedian; Joyce Banda,
former President of Malawi; and many others.
Adenuga was all smiles as he received his Best African TV
Producer award, and had this to say: “I have been producing TV content for
decades; and even before then, I had been entertaining families across the
continent through magazines and films. This award has strengthened my resolve
to further increase my efforts in churning out wholesome family entertainment,
which plays its own role in developing Africa. I appreciate the award organisers,
all the corporate advertisers and government agencies who have partnered with
WAP, and of course the millions of viewers who have stayed tuned over the
years.”
