JOIN THE TRAIN!

JOIN THE TRAIN TODAY !!


Yes, a new dawn is here for Ekiti State as XPRESSIONS the multi-dimensional Media, PR and Events Mnagement Company is relaunching the EKITI BOND Media Concepts by adding to its already existent Magazine, a TV Show and an online forum. So many people have doubted the possibility of this and are skeptical because of the bad image in which Ekiti has been portrayed, but the management team of XPRESSIONS led by Barr. Owolabi J. Oluwasayo and Gbenga Ogunsanmi are poised to show that there is a lot of good stuffs to be displayed and created.


More details on the build up to the event would be revealed in the next few weeks but coded information has it that it is billed for the Yoruba Tennis Club in Onikan and a proposed 30th of August is being proposed for it and remember, this is not and will never be a political Platform but the gathering of the brains and the intellect.

While we put all the arrangement for this occasion in place, we expect you to join the train for new Ekiti. Let us all join hands in making it a better place. Ekiti a gbe kete ra oo.

MEET 'SEYI GEORGE OLOFINJANA- THE GRADUATE SOCCER STAR.

SEYI GEORGE OLOFINJANA

Most of the footballers that Nigeria has produced have rarely been graduates either before or during their careers but it's not so for this proud indigene of Ikere Ekiti. He is an Engineering graduate from the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH). It was while at LAUTECH that he was discovered during the NUGA Games.

Olofinjana signed for Stoke City in July 2008 when he made a £3million switch from Wolverhampton Wanderers. Wolves' failure to win promotion for the Championship activated a clause in the midfielder's signed four-year contract that allowed him to leave.
Olofinjana began his career at FC Crown Ogbomoso in his native Nigeria and later moved to Kwara United. During this time he made his debut for the Nigerian national team, making his debut on June 6, 2000 in a 3-2 friendly win over Malawi.

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE EKITI BOND MEDIA PLATFORM

EKITI BOND MEDIA PLATFORM

EKITI BOND is built on the 3 core pillars of communication – A magazine (Print) , a TV show (Electronic ) and a Website (Online).



  • EKITI BOND is created XPRESSIONS MEGAMEDIA GROUP, a multi-dimensional Media, PR & Events Management Company. It was created to fill the lacuna shown by the absence of a viable media platform by which Ekiti state and all the good things that emanate from it (i.e people, tourist places, culture, investment opportunities et al) may be celebrated.


  • EKITI BOND was created in February in February 2008 and the maiden edition of its magazine was launched on 25th sept, 2008 in Ado Ekiti the state capital.
  • EKITI BOND we can proudly say is the most authoritative, informative and entertaining resource material when it comes to Ekiti state and that is why it is called “The True Celebration Of The Fountain Of Knowledge”

THE EKITI BOND PILLARS

PILLAR 2: EKITI BOND ON TV!

  • Scheduled to commence in the last quarter of 2009- EKITI BOND on TV is a replica of the magazine for the viewing public.

  • With a World Class production and an impeccable presentation, Ekiti, Nigeria and the world at large would be treated to a pot pourri of wonderful things that emanate from Ekiti as it would be transmitted on reputable local and cable TV stations.
