The popular monthly interview discourse on governance and nation building, Boiling Point Arena, is eliciting great interest from Nigerians and media groups across the globe.
Roots 97.1FM, Abeokuta in Ogun State is the latest addition to the list of radio and television stations collaborating to widen the audience reach of Boiling Point Arena via the terrestrial frequency across Nigeria and around the globe.
Owned by an accomplished broadcaster and entrepreneur Mr Kunle Onime, Roots FM is the first Nigerian Reggae radio station.
With deepened news content on consistent monthly basis via Zoom, about five media groups have so far found the interview discourses worthy of being beamed live in the recent past.
Among these stations are Oodua 99.9FM, Abeokuta, Sweet 107.1FM, Abeokuta, WASH 94.9FM, Lagos, Eagle 7 Radio 103.7FM and the London-based Ben Television.
The current affairs programme with an incredibly large online followership, is the brainchild of a media professional and public relations strategist, Dr Ayo Arowojolu, who parades 34 years multi-varied work career spanning the media, banking and education sectors.
Last month’s edition, it would be recalled, featured former Nigeria’s President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo who spoke on his legacies in governance and his assessment of today’s Nigeria.
The forthcoming edition which is the 27th episode, will hold on Sunday January 12, 2025 from 8pm over a two-hour duration.
On the podium this time around is eminent historian and an internationally rated academic, Prof. Toyin Falola who will dissect Africa’s Future and point the way forward as to how Africa can truly emerge as a future economic and cultural superpower.
The topic of discourse is: “The Socio-Economic and Political Survival of Mother Africa–The Delimma and Viable Options”.
Foremost traditional ruler, the Olowu of Owu Kingdom, Oba Prof Saka Matemilola is expected to deliver a keynote address to herald the discourse.
