    AFRIMA President Mike Dada Pens Emotional Tribute To Late Wife Modupe On Posthumous 50th Birthday

    The President and Executive Producer of the All Africa Music Awards (AFRIMA), Mr. Mike Dada, has penned a deeply moving tribute to his late wife, Modupe, as she would have marked her 50th birthday.

    In a statement released on Friday, Dada revealed that the occasion was Modupe’s second posthumous birthday, noting that two years ago they had discussed how she wished to celebrate the milestone.

    “When I had the conversation with you exactly 2 years ago on how you would like to celebrate your 50th birthday… little did I know that it would be your second posthumous birthday. God knows best,” he wrote.

    Describing his late wife as “light in its purest form—steady, warm, and life-giving,” Dada praised her “quiet but unshakable compassion,” “genuine love that never asked for recognition,” and her humility despite having “everything.”

    “You were a loving, loyal and dependable wife, peaceful partner, selfless mother and destiny accelerator… humble and respectful to a fault,” he said.

    The AFRIMA boss noted that despite advice from therapists, pastors, coaches, friends and family, “time has not learned how to move on without you.” He added that her presence remains in “every memory that refuses to fade” and that her light “continues to shine in ways words cannot fully capture.”

    “There are days the weight of missing you feels unbearably overwhelming… And then there are days I find strength in knowing that love like ours does not end—it only changes form,” Dada stated.

    He said he and his daughters, Serere and Olorire, would join heaven in celebrating her: “not just for the years you lived, but for the impact and love you left behind.”

    “Happy 50th birthday, my love. You are missed deeply beyond words, endlessly cherished beyond measure, and loved beyond time,” he concluded.

    Modupe Dada was remembered by many as a woman of grace, kindness, and unconditional affection.

    King Solomon Ekhaiyeme: The PixelPulse Founder’s Journey So Far

    LONDON/LAGOS, NIGERIA — In a media era where Nigerians in diaspora battle stereotypes, one name is building a platform to cut through the noise. King Solomon Ekhaiyeme stands as the journalist, visual storyteller, and media entrepreneur behind Pixel Pulse Media, a digital outlet now known for its bold coverage of Nigerian politics, and human-interest stories from Lagos, Nigeria to United Kingdom.

    From the newsroom to the lens, from editorial spaces to entrepreneurial boardrooms, his journey is one of vision, discipline, and creative evolution.

    A Creative Born From the Power of Images

    Long before he became a media founder, King Solomon Ekhaiyeme was simply a young observer captivated by the storytelling power of visuals.

    His early fascination with iconic publications, particularly lifestyle and celebrity magazines such as Ovation International, sparked an understanding that images are not just documentation, but emotional language. That became his edge in a political news cycle often reduced to press statements.

    The Making of a Journalist

    To refine his natural passion, he trained at the prestigious Times Journalism Institute, where he studied journalism, ethics, and media storytelling.

    It was here that passion met structure. He developed the discipline of reporting, the precision of editorial writing, and the responsibility that comes with shaping public narratives, skills now applied daily as PixelPulse Media reports on governance, policy, and the streets.

    The Ovation Media Group Chapter: Where Excellence Was Forged

    His breakthrough came with his time at Ovation Media Group, one of Africa’s most celebrated media institutions. Within this fast-paced environment, King Solomon worked on major events and high-profile assignments, refining his eye for detail and mastering visual journalism under media icons such as Dele Momodu.

    It was not just experience, it was refinement for the kind of political and cultural coverage his platform now delivers.

    A Global Perspective: The UK Experience

    Seeking broader horizons, King Solomon advanced his academic journey at the University of Hertfordshire, United Kingdom, where he gained international exposure to digital media systems and global communication trends.

    This UK experience now informs how PixelPulse Media frames Nigerian stories for both home and diaspora audiences, from Tinubu’s economic reforms to how Nigerians in UK actually live, beyond CNN headlines.

    ROYAL CLICKS VISUALS: Where Emotion Meets the Lens

    Out of experience was born expression.

    Royal Clicks Visuals, his premium photography brand, represents King Solomon’s commitment to capturing life beyond aesthetics, focusing instead on emotion, atmosphere, and storytelling depth.

    The brand has become known for:

    • High-end event photography
    • Artistic visual direction
    • Emotion-driven storytelling

    Every frame under Royal Clicks Visuals is designed not just to be seen, but to be felt, whether it’s a political rally or a diaspora wedding.

    PIXELPULSE MEDIA: The Visionary Platform

    Building on his foundation in journalism and photography, King Solomon founded PixelPulse Media, a modern digital platform that now publishes daily on Nigerian politics, Tinubu’s administration, entertainment, and diaspora affairs.

    PixelPulse Media serves as a creative ecosystem encompassing:

    1. Digital journalism
    2. Visual storytelling
    3. Media production
    4. Creative content distribution

    Within this structure, Royal Clicks Visuals operates as the visual powerhouse, while PixelPulse Media drives editorial narrative, including the fearless political reporting that now reaches thousands daily.

    A Distinct Editorial Voice

    As Editor and Creative Director, King Solomon has developed a storytelling style defined by clarity, emotion, and cultural relevance.

    His editorial focus spans:

    1. Entertainment and lifestyle culture
    2. Human-interest storytelling
    3. Social and contemporary issues
    4. Visual-first journalism

    His approach reflects a modern media philosophy: stories must not only inform, they must resonate. Even when the subject is as divisive as politics.

    The Dual Identity: Journalist & Entrepreneur

    What distinguishes King Solomon Ekhaiyeme in today’s media space is his dual identity.

    As a journalist, he documents reality with purpose and precision.

    As an entrepreneur, he built the platform that now reports on that reality, from State House press releases to how those policies hit the streets of Ibadan and Peckham, without fear.

    A Legacy Still in Motion

    In an era where African media continues to evolve, King Solomon Ekhaiyeme stands among a new generation of creatives reshaping the narrative.

    From early inspiration to international exposure, from newsroom experience to brand creation, his journey reflects ambition grounded in vision and execution.

    A Visionary to Watch

    As he marks another year today, King Solomon Ekhaiyeme stands as more than a media professional, he is a builder of narratives, a curator of visual culture, and a visionary shaping how Nigerian stories are told in the Tinubu era and beyond.

    Through PixelPulse Media, he gives voice to stories.

    Through Royal Clicks Visuals, he gives them memory.

    And through both, he is quietly building a legacy defined by creativity, excellence, and impact, one headline at a time.

  • Chinyere Ekomaru Quits as Imo Deputy Governor

    Chinyere Ekomaru Quits as Imo Deputy Governor

    Chinyere Ekomaru, has reportedly stepped down from her position, triggering widespread reactions across Nigeria’s political landscape.
    The development, which surfaced on Friday, has yet to be accompanied by a detailed official statement from the state government, leaving many questions unanswered about the circumstances surrounding her sudden exit.


    No Official Explanation Yet


    As of the time of filing this report, the administration of Hope Uzodimma has not publicly clarified the reason behind Ekomaru’s resignation. Government insiders have also remained tight-lipped, further fueling speculation.
    However, indications suggest that the process to appoint a new deputy governor may already be underway. Under Nigeria’s constitutional provisions, the governor is expected to nominate a replacement, subject to screening and confirmation by the State House of Assembly.


    Political Speculations Emerge


    Although no official reason has been confirmed, political observers have begun to weigh in on possible motives behind the move.
    Some analysts believe Ekomaru’s resignation could be linked to future political ambitions, including a potential bid for higher elective office. Others point to ongoing political alignments within the state, particularly the “Charter of Equity” arrangement, which has been a key factor in Imo’s power-sharing discussions.
    These claims, however, remain speculative and have not been verified by government authorities.


    A Brief Tenure in Office


    Ekomaru assumed office as deputy governor in January 2024 after being elected alongside Governor Uzodimma. Her emergence marked a significant shift in the state’s political structure, succeeding former deputy governor Placid Njoku.
    During her time in office, she played a supporting role in the state’s executive council, assisting in governance and policy implementation.

    What Happens Next?

    With her reported resignation, attention now turns to the next steps in Imo’s political process. The nomination and confirmation of a new deputy governor will be critical to maintaining stability within the state’s executive arm.
    Until an official statement is released, the full details behind Ekomaru’s departure remain unclear.


    Developing Story


    This is a developing situation, and more information is expected to emerge in the coming hours or days. Political stakeholders and residents alike are watching closely as events unfold.
