TIMI DAKOLO SET FOR NAIROBI DISABILITY CONCERT

It has now been confirmed that one of Africa’s finest R&B artiste and the winner of the first West Africa Idol is set to perform for the first time in Nairobi, Kenya at a concert put together by Opa Williams Production.

The tender hearted humanitarian will be the star artiste at the concert dubbed The Evening scheduled for Safari Park Hotel on the 17th of November.

According to Efe Omorogbe, CEO of Now Muzik , the concert is a fund raiser for people living with disability and it will also feature other artistes from Kenya as well as Nigerian ace comedian, Ali Baba.

Timi’s choice as a star artiste is not far-fetched; his rich choice of words, lyrical depth and soulful vocals, is always an experience for listeners. His Great Nation single off the Beautiful Noise album is a listening pleasure any time with its timely message and words of encouragement.

Timi has been involved in a number of charity works. He performed pro-bono at Valentine At Christmas, a charity concert organized by British Council in 2008 for the benefit of Lagos State schools and also the Inspired Africa Benefit Concert in 2009.

It would be recalled that Timi teamed up with eight other Nigerian artistes to produce a sound track for the Inspire Africa Foundation.

He has five videos to his credit which includes I Love U (2010), There’s a cry (2011), Let It Shine (2011), So Beautiful (2011) and Love Letter (2012) directed by Clarence Peters.

Other artistes expected at the concert include Chris Bitok, Suzzana Owiyo, Daddy Owen and Nairobi Choir.
