The award winning music talent discovery and grooming
competition, MTN Project Fame West Africa is back for an eighth straight
season. Looking for raw talents, the annual show will commence auditions from
today in some West African major cities and rest the auditions in Lagos on the 3rd
and 4th of July.
This
year, thousands of young talents will fight to get into the prestigious Project
Fame Academy, where superstars are made, to be tutored by the best in the music
and entertainment industry. For this Season, a major innovation that encourages
participation from the comfort of one’s home has been introduced.
According
to Mr Olumide Akinlabi, the spokesperson of Ultima Limited, the producer of the
show, aspiring contestants can simply “dial 5900 from their mobile phone (MTN
Line Only) and follow the voice prompt to record their audio audition for 45
seconds.”
Akinlabi
stated that after this, the applicant will receive a notification PIN number
within 24 hours, which will be used to register online.
