Meet Mims Rose: The Nigerian showbiz promoter that filmed President
Buhari’s last trip to Germany
Remember Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari’s recent trip to Germany
to visit Angela Merkel to strengthen Bi0lateral relationships between
both countries? Recall the trip led to the infamous #TheOtherRoom
interview that went viral worldwide.
Well, a Nigerian showbiz promoter resident in Germany witnessed and filmed it all.
His name is Olukayode Olukolade Akinsika famously known as Mims Rosé; a
Nigerian born show promoter based in Germany. Born and brought up in
Lagos, Nigeria, Mims Rose is a father of one and CEO of Mims Rosé
Entertainment International Limited with a stronghold in Germany and
England.
In his very active and successful career, he holds the bragging right as
the first Nigerian to take award winning pop star, Wizkid to Germany
for an event that got him the 2016 Afrobeat Music Awards Germany
nomination for Best Event/ Concert.
Asked if he’s ever had the support of sponsorship of any government,
Mims Rose says, ‘I’ve never had any government support and never had a
sponsor or partner in all I’ve done in the past. Its all
totally done by me. And so far I have invested over half a million
dollar in the entertainment business in Germany promoting Nigerian
musicians like wizkid, Davido, as well as American stars like Mario
Winans, Jholiday, Jadakiss, Styles P’.
On his future plans, he says, ‘the ultimate plan is to make Mims Rosé
Entertainment a platform that helps
bring out alot of talents in the West, showcase them to the world and
use part of the proceeds to help the needy through philanthropic work to
people in Africa, Asia and South America. Germany is the Biggest
Economy in Europe, and when it comes to Entertainment, after the United
Kingdom the rest of Europe look up to Germany due to its Large Economy’.
Mims Rose also extends an open invitation to Paul Okoye of Upfront Bookings to bring the ‘One Africa Muic Festival to Germany.
In his words, ‘nothing stops me from organizing a concert as big as the
One Africa Music Fest by Paul Okoye, I like his drive and passion for
entertainment and I believe we would be able to work together on a
similar project in Germany because I am ready to personally bankroll the
entire event if I see the figures clearly calculated. And guess what, I
am not trying to sound arrogant but no one has done my type of events
in Germany as we speak’.
