Presenting Nigeria's Young Person of the Year 2010 Wed, Feb 17. 2010
The first time I heard about Ify Aniebo was when The Future Awards 2010 nominees list appeared, at the end of 2009. She was up for the Best Use of Science category as well as the Young Person of the Year. One thing immediately became clear: in a generation full of entertainers and wannabes, Ify, currently a PhD student at the University of Oxford, is a refreshing icon, underscoring the importance of science to our progress as a nation.
She has set an ambitious goal for herself, to find a vaccine for that ageless scourge of sub-Saharan Africa – malaria – which annually kills close to a million persons, mostly children, on the continent.
Ify’s resume is intimidating, belying the fact that she is only 26 years old. She was “the youngest person, the only black person and the only Nigerian in the Wellcome-Oxford-WHO unit in Thailand and in the Malaria Department at the Sanger institute in Cambridge,” and has presented at leading malaria research conferences around the world.
She won the Best Use of Science category, and went on to win the Young Person of Year 2010, taking over from Kokomaster, D’Banj. Now it is my hope that, the same way D’banj has inspired multitudes of young people to take to the music studio, Ify will equally inspire large numbers of young Nigerians to find a future in the research laboratory.

Zara - Mommi mii Mon, Feb 15. 2010
Born Margaret Mary Joseph on July 30th, Nigerian music superstar ZARA is creating a buzz around the music scene both home and abroad. Zara as she is popularly known by fans across the globe has a uniqueness that sets her apart from most Nigerian female emcees. Her smooth entrapping voice and the powerful delivery of her jaw dropping lyrics in songs like “Mommi Mi” and “The Flyest” which are both singles in her upcoming album have captured the attention of fans and left them wanting more.
Zara considers her style a mixture of dancehall and afro hip hop, with influences like Onyeka Onwenu, Shina Peters and King Sunny Ade (KSA); Zara effectively delivers her lyrics with a cultural twist.
Independent of anything the Nigerian entertainment industry has ever seen, Zara also appreciates and is influenced by the creativity of female artists like Gwen Stefani, Madonna, and Angelique Kidjo.
Her bloom into the Nigerian music industry in 2006 was accompanied by collaborations with the likes of Eldee the Don, Keno Kenett, Zaina and a Dj Dee Money production of the infamous track “show yourself” with Ezzie B, Naira and Nyja. Performing and collaborating with a diverse pool of artists solidifies Zara’s versatility and authenticates her “Zwagger,” making her a talent to reckon with.
Zara is currently being managed under Toni Payne concepts, and according to her, she has no creative boundaries as she continues to grow as Naija’s flyest femcee

“This cutie is a surprisingly fierce female rapper from South London! Looks can be really deceiving. There is a saying that looks can kill.

Ajay is all about music. What you hear is as real as it gets. She is a genuine, independent woman, a voice from the streets who can communicate to the masses. Her passion will drive her to success and her determination to break the music industry will take her far!
