Like parents who are attending the convocation ceremony of their child, there, certainly, will be memories of a shy Iyanya, teenage Chidimma, vivacious Adetoun or a crude Praiz and subtly multi-talented Kesse, in the days when they graced our national television screens to deliver fine, abridge lines of local and foreign songs.

Though the five are a quarter of the total number of young aspiring music talents who have taken advantages of the technical and financial resources attached to the music reality TV show’s academy, their prominence account for the credibility of the MTN Project Fame West Africa.
Now, watching these young men and ladies share the same stage to deliver different songs from their personal albums, live, must be a testimony of what is certainly right and enviable about the platform that is so dear to Africa’s largest telecommunications company, MTN.
The MTN Project Fame West Africa is a musical academy and a television reality TV show. The concept behind the academy is to train aspiring talents who have been selected from different locations in the sub-region. Under the guidance of renowned music instructors, the lucky youths are given lessons on how to use their voice, manage the stage, engage their audience, time their movements and cue into beats.
At shows held at weekends of academy, the dreamful boys and girls are given opportunities to exhibit how well they have developed in the course of the week by performing to live audience of about 2000 and over 300 million watching on terrestrial or cable television networks, for thirteen weeks.
