FOLLOW FOR DREAMS

Barde Ahamed,a Nigerian music promoter didn't bother about what people or even his relatives think about music as a career because of religious and cultural beliefs,he went ahead to follow his dreams and passion.

He manages all this through a company called Greatklings Entertainment and Media that he founded in 2010 and manages too.The company also organizes concerts and has had a number of them successful.He has worked with artistes like Terry G,9ice Adigun,Reminice,Sean Tizzle,Fuse ODG from West Africa, and Cindy Sanyu and Eddy Kenzo from East Africa and many more.He says he likes it because of the profits he gets from it,and also the connections made with the people he works with.He also says,he gets losses at times but overall,he loves his job.
