industry by the grace of God. I always find a place in my heart to worship God.

Abuja Nigeria and the C.E.O of Phil Roberts & Da Sound Signatures and The
phil Roberts Foundation for all my charity projects.Notably, I have also worked with several talent hunt and exhibition

I am also the
National Coordinator of Project SAC a CSO for
The INTERNALLY DISPLACED PEOPLE (IDP)
in Nigeria as part of my community projects. I am a member of the prestigious
American Society For Non Destructive Testing Engineers.
In service to humanity
and passion for the emancipation of the
Nigerian Youths I was recently initiated
as one of the very few Nigerians to join The prestigious Young Parliamentarians
Forum to be part of those that will observe the credibility of The House.
In my ambition to strengthen young people, I have organized so
many major talent empowerment projects with several Churches and NGOs as i was
part of the team pushing the 35% youth
affirmative action in Nigeria
By the grace of God I am the Gospel

the world and also on radio stations around the world.

and undiluted worship as we bow down our heads to God to heal the land, reach
the unreached in an atmosphere for Yahweh to come dwell amongst us. This
concert is passion driven to make a difference in all worship Events in Abuja and beyond as we are
looking forward to converting souls more than 500 souls for Yahweh through this
worship experience.
JCB: What should people expect from this project?
This
project will touch the lives of the Less Privileged in the society as we will
be doing the be reaching through:

Building
a mini studio in the kuje prison. This idea was birthed from our various prison
visits as you will be shocked at the talents that are wasting in our prisons.

an orphanage home and having a
·
Celebrity
visit to the IDP camps

I did not
choose gospel o, it’s a calling from God as I have been in the gospel music
sphere since children department at Assemblies of God.

many albums do you have so far?
Just One, my Debut but the Live worship
concert will birth my second album as it will be recorded live on the concert.
JCB: Who are
the producers you have worked with?
Mac Roc,
Manus, Gospel on The Beat and Mekoyo
JCB: Do you
write all your songs? Tell us more about this.
Yes I do! As
I am an advocate of originality in entertainment contents because several of
our musicians are really lazy, they only like to clone people’s intellectual
works to build theirs and this limits the power in the songs, repeat of the
same message which also limits the content delivery.
JCB: Apart
from music, do you do any other business?
I’m a media
consultant, I develop concepts and ideas for people as I have a part of the Phil
Roberts brand that handles my media consultancy and because of my strength in
engineering I do so much of engineering consultancy too.
JCB: How do
you fund your charity projects as a Gospel musician?
It is funded
by God. You’ll be shocked at the way funds come in, though we have some people
that just come in to support us once in a while and we’ve also be asking for
people to come in to support this project.
JCB: Who are
your sponsors and partners for NOW?
I have partners that are working with me as
committee members and they decided to bring all their companies to partner on
this project.
JCB: How
will this project affect Nigeria positively?
This project
is designed to give back to the society and the concert itself is designed for
us to worship God in an atmosphere of miracles and deliverance through worship,
JCB: How do
you spend your time outside work?
Hmmmm I like
travelling! So I just take a walk to any beautiful environment to feed my eyes.
It brings more inspiration.

Just keep
moving on! Believe on your dreams as you are beautiful just like the rainbow!
It will come to pass.
