Barbara On Radio

Welllll, let's just say that while I wanted to be the face of a brand for the longest time, being on radio wasn't exactly top of my list. I've heard it been said that I've a great radio voice but that's about it.

It's 2016, a brand new year with new challenges and new opportunities and I've now got my own show on radio. Yup, it happened. My friend (yes she's my friend), Joy Isi Bewaji who also happens to be the Editor-In-Chief of happenings.com.ng, thought it would be a great idea to give me one hour on the new online radio station that Happenings Magazine will be launching this year. Uhun.

So now there's a bit of a challenge. WHAT AM I GOING TO BE SAYING FOR 1 HOUR EVERY SATURDAY MORNING ON RADIO FOR 13 WEEKS? Well, the first quarter after the launch of the station at least.

I mean, it's great and all, but after the euphoria of having my own programme on radio and all, I'm uber - scared.

Ok, Happenings Radio is launching in February and will meet the needs of a very targeted audience so it isn't your regular 24-hours station.

Here's an excerpt from the press release

Its pop meets authentic meets passion meets fashion meets fun and music. Dynamic, rhythmic and inspirational! 
Hugely ambitious, Happenings Radio will present viewers with immediate feedback opportunity to interact with the rest of the world, share personal opinions and diverse views on a range of topics.
