AVEC AMOUR SET TO DAZZLE LOVERS ON VALS DAY 2014

KALINE AKINKUGBE

Valentine 2014 set to be a very memorable one at least for very romantic and very loving couples. At least that's what Avec Amour is trying to achieve. Their idea is to bring a more modern twist to the very traditional way of celebrating here in Lagos, Nigeria. 


From the stand point of the organisers of Avec Amour, which is the French word that translates to mean.....With Love, the essence of love and sharing would pervade the atmosphere to such an extent that it would be so thick and totally enveloping in love. 

It starts from the venue chosen, 10A Venture Ground in Ikoyi, off Macpherson road and off Oyinkan Abayomi Drive, which is the former Queen's Drive. Lovers would be under the canopy of the sky looking starry eyed into the skies and seeing as the stars moves about to form the different constellations. Most likely cupid himself would be flying around openly on the day with plenty of arrows to shoot at willing hearts. Then on to hor d' oeuvres and then the main meal (3-course stupendously lovely one), that would be served with the finest choices of wine, hmmmmm!!!!!We bet you are already salivating! Under this gorgeous and glorious totally lovestruck ambiance, then the incredibly sonorous afro-music exponent Kaline Akinkuge & her band would provide soothing music. Most likely many conception would be sorted out that night.

The best part of the day is that a certain percentage of the the day's proceeds is going towards supporting the Haven for the Nigerian Kids Foundation, which has tirelessly worked towards the eradication of destitute children on the streets of Lagos. 

So come show love to one another and also share that same love for humanity by just being a part of this. It's an idea robot production.

Grandtouch Production where Chico Ejiro aka Mr. Prolific, who also is one of the best Producers/Directors in Nollywood is the head honcho had a glorious valentine shindig on Thursday, February 14, 2013 at the Oriental Hotel, Grand ballroom, Victoria Island, Lagos. 

The lovers party, which we hear is going to be an annual package on every lovers day, had many people in attendance. As usual there were loads from the Nollywood where Chico is very well respected, we saw Fred Amata & his new beau of inestimable value, Mor Okonkwo, there were also many other Nollywood couples, Segun Arinze & wife, Ejike Asiegbu & wife, Tony Umez & wife, Emeka Ossai & wife, Zik Zulu-Okafor & wife, Fidelis Duker & wife and several other couples.  Delicious looking Monalisa Chinda came alone, she was dressed in a sweet black outfit and finished it off with a nice Christian Louboutin pumps, Benita Nzeribe was around also, our gorgeous friend Halima Abubakar came with a very gorgeous friend Benita Peters, Tricia Esiegbe-Kerry was also around, Chidi 'GQ' Mokeme was also in the house as were several others. 

It was a combination of music, jokes & lovers game for couples; lovers game was won hands down by Tony Umez & wife, who seem to know every little details about themselves. It was a beautiful evening and well packaged event.  Chico's wife, Joy was up and about making sure everything went well. Drinks were supplied by Veleta, apart from the several bottles of wine & champagne on the tables, so every one had unbridled fun. 

There was musical performances by the likes of delectable Seyi Shay, Tiwa Savage, Cameroonian bombshell Ashley Stephanie had a glorious performance, she gave a good account of herself, Mandy 'the comedienne' & Elder O, a fantastic comedian we coming across for the first time kept everyone laughing all through the show. 

February 14, 2014 is a date we all are already keeping to attend the next edition. God willing!
