In recent years, the entertainment industry in Nasarawa state has experienced a noticeable decline in relevance. According to Mr. Excellent, a prominent member of the industry, there are fewer shows, award ceremonies, and active bloggers and promoters.
Additionally, there seem to be fewer high-quality songs being produced by artists in the state, which is a sharp contrast to what was obtainable in 2018 and 2019.
MR EXCELLENT WROTE:
All of a sudden, Nasarawa State Entertainment Industry is loosing relevance. No more frequent shows, award ceremonies, bloggers/promoters and no much good songs from artiste compared to what we had in 2018/2019. Good producers, artiste and investors ran to neighbouring state. What is going on?
How do we fix this?
Let’s have a round table discussion.
It is apparent that good producers, artists, and investors have fled to neighbouring states in search of better opportunities. This trend is alarming and calls for immediate action to revive the Nasarawa state entertainment industry.
What could be responsible for the current state of the industry? The decline in relevance may be attributed to several factors such as a lack of infrastructure, inadequate government support, and poor funding. It is essential to address these challenges to revive the industry and make it competitive once again.
To begin the process of repositioning the Nasarawa state entertainment industry, there is a need for a round table discussion involving stakeholders in the industry. This will provide an opportunity for everyone to brainstorm and proffer solutions that will help reposition the industry.
One of the solutions that could be considered is improving the quality of shows and award ceremonies. This will attract more investors and sponsors, which will eventually translate into more significant opportunities for artists and producers. Additionally, there is a need to encourage and support up-and-coming artists in the state by providing training and mentorship programs to help them improve their craft.
Furthermore, the government must play a more significant role in reviving the industry. This can be achieved by providing funding and creating an enabling environment for the industry to thrive.
The state government can also partner with private investors to build world-class entertainment venues and studios that will attract local and international artists.
In conclusion, the current state of the Nasarawa state entertainment industry requires urgent attention. The industry can be revitalized by identifying and addressing the challenges it faces.
A round table discussion involving all stakeholders is a step in the right direction, and it is hoped that the government will support this initiative to ensure the growth and development of the industry.
