Members of the Abuja Chapter of the Performing Musicians Employers Association of Nigeria (PMAN) have formally endorsed Solomon NDA-Isaiah as it governor following the resignation of Collins Adeyemi, the erstwhile governor.
This was made during its usual general meeting held March 31 at Rita Lori Hotel Garki, Abuja.
In his acceptance speech, NDA-Isaiah promised to work diligently for the upliftment of the association and for the benefit of all musicians adding that he was ready to put in his time resources, energy and contact to see to the success of the association. He also stressed on the need to bring in all aggrieved members together so that the association could regain its lost glory.
“I contested as the chairman of PMAN FCT in 2004 but lost to Makossa Queen. I had wanted to lead the PMAN FCT Chapter because of the big plans I have for the Abuja music scene and musicians. But due to some factors, I couldn’t really achieve that at that point. But I later bounced back 10-years later to win the deputy governor position of the association. I am here on a rescue mission…It’s time to face reality. I don’t believe in talking too much, I believe in action and I need the full cooperation of all the musicians in Abuja in order to revamp the industry. I promise to do all within my powers and with God by my side, we are going to move PMAN FCT Chapter to greater heights,” he promised.
Also reacting, the PMAN Secretary, Vincent Omoko aka Cent Moko congratulated the new Governor, pledging his undying support. He also called on all members to support the new governor to move the association forward.
Until his appointment, NDA-Isaiah served as deputy to Adeyemi.
