Armed with an expressive face, baritone voice and contagious smile. Pa Jimi Solanke is one of Africa’s most accomplished performing artistes. He is a man of different parts: a musician, poet, thespian, educationist, producer, etc.The memories of him during his days as anchor of the children series on NTA storyland lingers on. He usually held his audience spellbound with his educative and entertaining stories which he brilliantly and convincingly told moving between characters and settings.For every song Jimmy Show as fondly called churns out, a story is usually behind it. His popular song OMIYALE about Ogunpa flood that took place in Ibadan and composed over 40 years ago have great historical relevance today. This is an honour well deserved and kudos to Ogun State Government for the recognition of a creative genius who is well respected both home and abroad for his inputs in the entertainment industry.The fun packed event will be taking place on Saturday 22nd of October in Abeokuta at the recently upgraded world class June 12 Cultural Centre.
