Nigerian rapper Zima real name Olamilekan Samson Olaitan Adeyemi has released his new video titled 'Kisa'.

The song is produced by the Kenyan based Nigerian Producer, King Spyke and  video is shot and directed by the Kenyan top video director, Richie G.

Born on 21st February 1995 into a family of 5, it is during his secondary school days that Zima gained interest in music through a friend who used to lend him an Ipod to listen to latest songs.

His parents later pushed him to join the church choir where he learnt how to play drums and sing professionally.

One of his major influences when starting out was the late Nigerian rapper “Da Grin” who he listened to a lot before and after his death; he influenced his style of music which is rapping in his native language Yoruba.

He later got familiar with other successful Yoruba rappers like Olamide and Reminisce, which by listening to their music made him understand the game better.

This year, he has released two songs titled Elebolo and Kisa, both videos shot by Kenyan Video Director Richie G. The two songs are officially out and were released to the market and on YouTube in April 2018 and July 2018 respectively.

It's now four years since Ugandan female artist Juliana Kanyomozi lost his only son Keron Raphael who was only 11 years old at the time of his death.

The death of her only son saw her take impromptu retreat from work and the social scene, it even affected her relationship.

She was quoted saying “I was very angry with God. He had just taken away the most important thing I had in life. Then again, there’s always a reason for everything single thing. He does,” .

In an emotional post, Juliana remembered her late son 

she posted 

"Today my angel has made four years in heaven. And it never gets any easier. I remember your silly jokes, your sense of humor, your charm, your ability to make friends of all ages and somehow engage all of them with such ease. You were just so perfect. I miss your hugs and the foot massages ?. You always told me I’m “THE BEST MUM EVER”, I don’t know what I did to deserve this compliment , I jus know I did the thing that I loved the most in the world, be your mother. God surely blessed me when he gave me you. On this day I can’t help but think about other parents who’ve just lost a child. Death may be apart of us yes, but the heartache of the loss of a child is immeasurable . May God continue to strengthen us all. RIP Keron Raphael Kabugo Atwooki ????

#ForeverLoveKeron"

What Is MOOKH.?

 

The name Mookh (pronounced MUK) is derived from a Sheng word for Money (Mukwanja) and describes a core function of the e-commerce system, which is to make it easy for sellers to receive payments easily and securely when transacting with buyers online.

 

MOOKH is launching a new iteration of their innovative offering – a portal aimed at enabling sales and payments for third-party businesses.

 

The idea for MOOKH came about from our own frustration trying to sell stay online. The core of why we exist is to help sellers get online and start selling quickly, easily and effectively. Through this system upgrade we are able to better fulfill that mission,” said Eric Thimba.

 

Launching MOOKH.AFRICA

 

The company has great pan-African ambitions and has over the past 12 months been working on a major upgrade to the system with support from partners like Microsoft 4Afrika and Facebook. This upgrade will allow its existing database of over 800 sellers to:

  1. Enjoy increased reach and sales opportunities, with a more robust online directory.
  2. Have 24-hour access and control of real-time activity on their stores from an easy-to-use, merchant-centric backend dashboard.
  3. View advanced sales insights and consumer analytics right from their backend dashboard.
  4. Use a single online account to setup stores for event ticketing, product sales, and sale of digital content, with the ability to have multiple users in each.

 

With plans to expand operations into Rwanda and Uganda within the next 6 months, this upgrade also opens up opportunity for Kenyan sellers to reach audiences in the two new markets right from the comfort of their local shop. The same applies for buyers looking to purchase commodities from online merchants in the two countries as well.

If you are a fashion designer, we are sure you have heard about the International Fashion Showcase(IFS), which was established in 2012. Created in partnership with the British Council, it is a platform for new designers to showcase their talent,especially during London fashion week. The aim is to bring fashion from all over the world to London. It has showcased over 600 designers from 70 different countries.

Other brands such as the British Fashion and UAL have partnered with the British Council to provide a programme for the 16 selected designers. They are set to undergo a business development course for about eight months. We arve sure they are as excited as you are while playing the Betway online sports betting app; after all, there is just so much for the taking.

A Look at The International Fashion Showcase Designers 2019 Event

 

The IFS 2019 will be a bit different for designers. The lucky 16 who have been chosen are set to start in August 2016. They will be showcasing the unique cultures from their respective countries. The six-month-longprogramme will help them learn branding, business development and interact with a wide range of studio artists.

The whole aim of next year's IFS is for designers to learn ethics in fashion and everything about sustainability tech. The studio artists together with experts from London College of Fashion will try and push designers to collaborate with each other before February 2019.

In 2019, Africa will be in luck as three designers from three different countries will represent them. That is Ami DoshiSalah(Kenya), Cedric Mizero(Rwanda) and Thebe Magugu(South Africa). These three designers have something different to offer,and they are set to represent different cultures and their signature feel.

  1. Ami Doshi Shah

She is a trained jewellery and adornment designer. She started the label "I am I' which is an exploration of how adornment can sculpture a body. Her collection is beautiful and striking though a bit unusual.  She gets her inspiration from her love of Kenya and also uses local material. Ami Doshi Shah graduated from the Birmingham School of Fashion and Art in the UK with a BA(Hon). She has had her own set of achievement by winning the Goldsmith's Award for best design(Apprentice Trainee).

 

  1. Cedric Mizero(Rwanda).

 

At just the age of 19, this young lad had started showcasing his designs at the Kigali Fashion Week. His designs are unique with them focusing a bit more on the haute culture.

 

  1. Thebe Magugu(South Africa)

 

He is a multifaceted designer who mainly focuses on women's wear. He gets his inspiration from the different roles they have played in his life. The clothes are sleek and fashion forward with a silhouette in the African culture.

 

The winner of the 2019 Fashion week will be chosen from the same panel that selected them. They will be awarded for and recognised for their unique and creative designs.
