Lucky Dube Legacy Company Encourages Fans to Share Their Stories to Feature in Commemorative Anthology of Artist’s Career




JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, August 5, 2024/ -- With more than 22 albums and 20 awards internationally, South Africa’s Lucky Dube is still one of the most streamed and celebrated artists across the continent. He continues to grow an international following, with his message and evergreen lyrics resonating across generations, race, religion and language.

To celebrate his life and the impact of his music across the world, the Lucky Dube Legacy Company is encouraging fans to share the moment Lucky’s music mattered!

“We know that Lucky’s music has had a deep and lasting personal impact on many of you. We also know that his music inspired hope, political and social activism in many places around the world – often the common unifier amongst those who heard and loved his music.

This year, Lucky would have turned 60, and we want to hear about the times made significant with his music. Maybe it was after listening to or seeing Lucky play live or even encountering him in person. Or maybe you shared a moment with a fellow fan by chance. It could be something that you experienced yourself or perhaps it is a story that you’ve heard from others.

Whatever it is, no matter if it is big or small, we want to hear about it.”

Your story could be selected to feature in a commemorative anthology of Lucky’s life in music that will be made available world-wide.

It may also be featured in Lucky’s social media posts, as well as future projects!

Françoise Gaime Gilot, The Feminist Muse of Pablo Picasso


Artworks in Honour of Françoise Gaime Gilot, The Feminist Muse of Pablo Picasso

To me, Françoise Gaime Gilot was the most beautiful and intellectual of all the Muses of Pablo Picasso.

Attractive and expressive and not submissive like the other women.
She was a feminist.
Her refusal to be submissive annoyed him.

I have done these artworks which I am also going to mint as NFTs in memorial tribute to her.
- Ekenyerengozi Michael Chima.

Françoise Gaime Gilot 

(26 November 1921 – 6 June 2023)

Chief Joseph Momah Pays Condolence Visit to In-Laws

Chief Joseph Momah Pays Condolence Visit to In-Laws

The burial was grand. It attracted many Very Important Personalities, VIPs across the country. Ichi town had never seen such a gathering in recent history.

Chief Joseph Momah (Ajose) was the cynosure of all eyes as he dazzled all with his galaxy of friends and associates. He contributed in no small measure in making the burial grand.

Notedly, on January 4th, 2022, a Lagos-based business mogul and industrialist, Chief Joseph Momah brought to the fore, the essence and beauty of in-lawship in Igbo culture when he led a powerful delegation of family, friends and business associates to pay a condolence visit( Akwa -Ogo)  to his in-laws, the Obimdikes of Umuezeabu village, Ichi in Ekwusigo local government area of Anambra state over the death of the family's matriarch, late Sir Julius Ndukaife Obimdike.

Chief Momah is married to the late Sir Obimdike's daughter, Mrs Ozioma Momah.

Essentially, in the Igbo socio-cultural setting, in-laws are highly regarded because marriage inextricably connects and unites families as one so much so that what affects one affects the other.


It was against this backdrop that Chief Momah, a director of Fairpoint Limited, Marketers of Mega foods( Mega sardine, mackerel and seasonings), Eggovin & Sterling Reserve Whiskeys paid a colourful but powerful condolence visit to his in-laws to mourn with them.

Among high flyers and dignitaries that accompanied him to the condolence visit include  IKENGA Ichi and chairman of the Ekulo Group, Sir Emma Bishop Okonkwo, Chief & Mrs Sam Okonkwo (Enyiagboso), Pharm (Chief) Sam Ubachukwu( Nkpu -Ogiliga), Arc.Tony Nkwonta, Chief Emma Aniakor, Chief Tony Okonkwo( Dream Cosmetics), Barrister Apo Nwankwo, Barrister Dozie Eriobu and Chief Kenneth Okafor (Dofas).Others include Chief Josiah Mgbemena( Okenwa Neni), Nze and Lolo Azubike Okonkwo, Chief Chidi Unachukwu, Chief Nnaemeka Onyeanusi, Prof.Nwadialo E.O., Chief Ben Uluabuike( Bego),Mr Emeka Oramadike, Chief and Mrs Unigwe, Madam Big Ben, Chief Martin Udeaja, Ifeatu Okonkwo, Sir Dume Okenwa Ofodile, Chief Chuka Igwe, Chief Dan (Danduco) Chief  Bennet Anekwe (Ben Gold Ltd). Also in the delegation were Chief Ingram Osigwe (EnyiOha na Akokwa), Chief Afam Ubachukwu, ChiefJoseph Okonkwo (Nwachinemelu), Chief Ezekiel Okeke, Chief Emeka Nmeka, Chief Nathan Okonkwo( Ezeugo), Chief Ossy Okonkwo( Akurienne), Nwakaibeya Ichi and members of Alpha circle club.

A Knight of St. Christopher, three Anglican Bishops officiated at the late Sir Obimdike's burial. They include Bishop Ndubisi Obi of Nnewi Diocese, Bishop Chinweike of Nkalagu (Enugu Diocese) and Bishop Okpala (Retired).
Until his demise, Sir Obimdike  was the Chairman of Ichi Anglican Knights.
