Mr. and Miss Real Estate Africa Pageantry, 2022 is a yearly beauty and empowerment contest geared towards the promotion of real estate, fashion industry, entertainment, and other related industries in Nigeria, Africa, and the world. It is also a program merge with beauty contest, entertainment, media packaging, networking, business grooming and presentation, so as to spotlight the new set of models and others to become global influencers, and brand ambassadors which would help them in becoming self-employed, self-alliance, and global citizens.

It is also a means of mobilizing the young people into the real estate industry, content creation, and exposing them to the business opportunities, and investment that is abound in the real estate, and digital world; and as well as exposing them further to the technological advancement in the real estate business module, fashion research, and implementation.

This is to say that, the Mr. and Miss real estate Africa beauty pageantry would be paving ways for its participants in launching them into real estate research for future sustainability while educating them, and the general public on how to bring their home ownership dream to reality, becoming their own landlords and landladies, as well as becoming financially empowered.

More so, Mr. and Miss Real Estate Africa pageant is also coming with a strategies and concept to introduce to the real estate developers, investment brokers and agencies, consultants, agents, marketers and networkers a millennium opportunities of real estate blockchain, tokenization, decentralize finance (DEFI), non-fungible token systems, and platforms in which they can leverage on while moving toward future real estate business sustainability.

The concept/titles of Mr. and Miss Real Estate Africa beauty pageant is as follows:

Through this concept we are able to see that the Mr. and Miss Real Estate Africa pageantry would differ from many other beauty contests ever existed in that it is given room for many winners to emerge at a time, and thereby serving as a forum to create a formidable force of real estate influencers and brand ambassadors all over Africa and the world.

Certainly, It would also be pertinent to note that the concept of real estate Africa pageantry, 2022, and across to other years is one that would enable more collaboration amongst real estate companies in Nigeria, Africa and the world at large, in that, the influencers and brand ambassadors emerging from this pageantry in collaboration with the initiative team would be continuously working closely to make sure that the sponsors and partners’ products, and services are promoted collectively to achieve a common goal of massive sales and recruitments.

And one of the great impacts of having many winners emerging from this pageantry all at once is that is it going to pave ways for massive leads generation for all sponsoring, partners and supporters brands.

• TELL US SOMETHING, HOW DID THIS IDEA CAME INTO YOUR MIND TO BRING TOGETHER TWO DIFFERENT INDUSTRY NOLLYWOOD AND REAL ESTATE?

Yes, I was born into entertainment since my childhood. I am a professional drummer, lead guitarist, and love all musical instruments, I am an actor, and a footballer. And throughout my school days I have witness a lot of talents being wasted in the street without promotion or management.  I have seen some parents stopping their children from utilizing their talents when they realized that they have these God giving resources in them. So, I have also seen the birth of Nollywood film industry in which some of my groomed and trained actors and actress are working in there now.

I have also seen the challenges of Nollywood Film industry and the standard of productions ranging from lack of funding, good and global centric script writers, down to content marketing, and I’ve decided to started Ekallywood Film industry, and Ekallywood streaming Television as a new platform that would partner with Nollywood, Bollywood and Hollywood film industries, even other media platforms so asto form the alliance that would bridge the cap of all what I have mentioned so far, and bring in more talents and creativity to the industry. Also to educate families and communities not to waste talents.

So, to a point, I was advancing into talent management, event planning, and Radio and TV programs Hosting, even digital marketing, advertisement and consulting, etc. I then decided to look into that area in which young and talented people are not crowded yet, or not having much opportunities or broad knowledge at the moment, then, decided to talk to my team that it’s time to organize Mr. and Miss Real Estate Africa Pageantry to open a new untapped opportunities to the young people, and letting them and the industry leaders to collaborate in working in an advance ways to generate wealth to them, others and the nations. Though we have a lot of other events that we have hosted and planning to host such as: Green Africa Beauty Pageant in 2019, Ibom Skill center development teaching ICT Programs, partner in organizing Poultry and livestock exhibition with Cems Nigeria, 2019, Hosting Legacy Model Africa, 2020, House of Pageant Reality TV Show interactive session, 2020/21 (1^st, 2rd, and third editions), Class of Queens Reality TV Show, 2021, Ogun state fashion show, 2021, Pop up show, 2020, and now Mr. and Miss Real estate Africa, 2022.

This is why, because I know Nollywood industry that represent entertainment cannot do more without using locations to translate their scripting and story to a reality. And even after these becoming famous, their glamorous and luxurious ways of life mean that real estate is important facet of this industry. Therefore, in this case, if the both industry leaders should look critically into the other, then, they would know why it’s necessary for this alliance of new global opportunity for growth.

So, if you are an entertainer, media house, radio and TV network, food and beverage companies, fashion houses, commercial retail supply chain, and real estate brands, etc. Get to sponsor this event, or partner with us in other to tap into our massive audience and benefit in brands awareness, and mentioning during this event.
