AWB reality TV show launches in London

The world is getting ready to be wooed by African talent. Africa’s World Best (AWB) reality TV show launched at a cocktail reception on 6th February at the Kenya High Commission, London, attended by Miss East Africa UK/Miss Kenya UK Vicky Ngari and Miss West Africa Amina Kamara , various African press and celebrities. The reality TV show which is scheduled to take place in Kenya in April is drawing much attention from talented Africans in Europe, USA, UK and Africa.

“There is a need to recognise African talent worldwide, develop new talent and reward the existing talent,” said AWB founder Pauline Long. “This show is promising pure entertainment at the highest level and at the same time giving back to Africa by establishing sustainable youth projects. It’s a very interesting concept with 60 African contestants, 60 days and one deserving winner,” She added.

Meanwhile AWB host Bigbrother Africa winner, Cherise Makubale looked glamorous as usual as she revealed AWB show is one she’s looking forward to. “The Bigbrother Africa house was interesting and fun but I think AWB reality TV show has more to offer”, she explained.

The highlight of the evening was an outstanding poetry performance by Alex "iQuest" Bede, a young talented Cameroonian performance artist and poet with music by a Congolese/Kenyan Jazz band.

What separates Africa’s World Best (AWB) from other reality TV talent shows is their mission. They have created a non- profit wing called AWB Together and through it the reality TV talent show will give back 40% to Africa yearly to assist young Africans to set up businesses, sustainable projects and create more jobs resulting in income growth in Africa. AWB Together will begin this process with Kenyan youth and gradually spread to the rest of Africa. The main reason for this large input is to empower the people of Africa with all the essential tools for a successful economic growth of Africa and give back to the communities what belongs to them.

AWB reality founder Pauline Long promised to deliver first class entertainment through the show with an aim of getting the world to embrace African talent.

Kenya High Commission was extremely supportive towards the launch in London and has promised to play part in contributing towards this noble project.

AWB is set to launch in other parts of Europe, USA and finally the big one in Kenya.

“Stay tuned and keep your eyes peeled for this exciting TV show that is set to be broadcasted worldwide. Simon Cowell had better watch out, there’s some stiff competition coming his way,” said Pauline Long while addressing the press at Kenya High Commission in London.
