Mo Abudu
Mo Abudu‘s TV Network – EbonyLifeTV will go live on Monday
1st of July 2013 at 12am on Channel 165 on DSTV. With the launch just a
few days away, there is the promo video for the Network which according to
officials of the network, will air as a TV Commercial on CNN International and
other media platforms.
The Channel will parade some of the best young faces on Nigerian
television, some already popular, some not so popular.
Banky W, Tiwa Savage,
Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Oreka Godis, Veronica Ebie-Odeka, Zainab Balogun,
Dolapo Oni, Lamide Akintobi
and a host of other media
personalities have TV shows on the network.
A high percentage
of Nigerian youth are still not too pleased with Mo, as whenever talks of the
anticipated network come up, it is usually accompanied with complains that Mo
knew from the inception that she was going to work with already established
acts, so there was no need for that farce called auditions she did at Terra Kulture
and Eko hotel last year.
According to what bebeakinboade.com
gathered, the whole project has cost over N2 billion. Funding for the project
include: loan facility from a bank, investments from some friends including
billionaire Fola Adeola, Uzoma Onwuchekwa and Lanre Olusola.

Also making a strong presence in the
project is the government of Cross River State, financial support from a
few banks, which sources say could include First Bank of
Nigeria (FBN) and Diamond Bank, MTN,
We are keeping our
fingers crossed and hoping the whole arrangement works out and does not end up
being another flopped project
and waste of resources like Oprahs Winefrey’s OWN network which has lost over
$300 million.
