Comedian Ajebo takes Anti-drug campaign to campuses

Away from being a laugh merchant, celebrated comedian and On Air Personality, Emeka Erem, aka Ajebo will be touring Nigerian campuses with his comedy and music concert, Ajebo Unleashed. However, the comedian revealed that this time around, he is taking with him a message of hope and inspiration.

Sponsored by Minimie Chinchin in partnership with Wow Production, his production outfit, the comedian, who is popular on YouTube for his animation series, House of Ajebo revealed that the aim is to give back to students in campuses. “We are going with two hash tags. One of is #DontDoDrugs. No matter how much it has been said, we will not stop talking about it. Drugs kill. As an entertainer, I can stand here today to tell you that I didn’t need to take any performance enhancing drug to perform on stage,” he said.

According to him, the second hash tag, #SurviveOnCreativity is geared towards letting Nigerian youths know that their future is in their hands. The idea, he said, is to urge them to survive on their God given talents by building an entrepreneurial mindset even while on campus. “So we are trying to also push the message of entrepreneurship. We cannot protest, we cannot fight, we cannot take up arms. What we have is entertainment and that is what we are using to talk to the youths of this country,” he said.

Also on campuses, we will be giving out cash prizes to three lucky people in an open mic session at the show,” he added.
