The Emohua PMAN unit has a membership strength of 40 persons whose five (5) members are already in the studio working on their single album hoping to launch them in the middle of 2013.
Acho Solomon Owuru, 1st Vice chairman of PMAN Rivers State chapter appealed to the State government to continue to provide enabling environment for upcoming performers in the state to enable them excel.
He said many performing talents abound in Rivers State, but the challenge of not having good studios, and market are some of the teething problems bedeviling his members, stressing that it is only when you are marketed after a good job from a good studio that you could hit limelight.
He called on the government to support PMAN and encourage the association to organize occasions where talents would be discovered from the length and breadth of the state.
He maintained that all shows and performance related occasions should be handed over to PMAN as the only body that knows how to go about anything involving show biz projects.
He used the medium to advise the newly inaugurate EXCO to be discipline and hard working, thereby presenting the good image of PMAN in Emohua. ####
