FULL DETAILS OF JULIUS AGWUS DAY ! 40TH BIRTHDAY PARTY

When Julius Agwu was born April 7, 1973 to Madam Mary Welebor Agwu, the wife of Late Pa Augustine Wamadi Agwu (a Part time hunter, part time bricklayer and part time Okada Rider), he didn’t know he would someday become one of the leading lights in Nigeria and Africa Comedy Industry.
He didn’t know that 40years after he took his first breathe out of his mother’s womb, he would be celebrated at the Habour Point, Victoria Island Lagos, with a Governor as respected as Governor Rotimi Amaechi, the Executive Governor of Rivers State in attendance.
That was what happened last night in Lagos Nigeria where Governor Amaechi, lead Captain of Industries, Politicians, Actors, Record Label Owners, Comedians, Journalists, DJ’s, Artistes, etc to celebrate one of the leading comedians and impresarios at FORTY.

The Party opened with Tim Geoffrey leading a brief praise and Worship Segment, after which veteran Comedian, Yibo Koko gave a welcome speech and introduced on stage, Alibaba the MC on the Night.
Dan the Humorous lived up to his last name with a witty performance that began from how he couldn’t understand why the tuition of a Primary 4 Pupil should be as high as N450,000 per term, wondering if they are being taught things different from the same ’2+2=4′ math he learnt at the same level. He also poked jabs at Joseph Yobo’s outing at the last Nation’s Cup in South Africa: how Yobo was always introduced 3 minutes to stoppage-time after Keshi must have warned him to do one thing when he gets on the pitch – avoid the ball. Always reminding him if he had avoided the ball, Nigeria wouldn’t have drawn the group match against Burkina Faso.
After him, Kcee was brought on stage to perform. He and Burna Boy were two performing acts on the night the Genius in Julius Agwu was celebrated.
Then, it was time to Launch Julius Agwu’s Auto-Biography, titled Jokes Apart… How did I get here? 
Julius had actually set out time to chronicle is rise to becoming one of the ‘ogas at the top’ in Nigeria’s Comedy industry. Like Tony Kan had reported in the Daily Sun on Sunday April 7, 2013, “the Book is an unaffected narrative of [Julius Agwu’s] journey of hope and determination from the rustic village of Choba to the glittering stages of Lagos, London, New York and other capital cities of the world.”

Again Governor Ameachi lead a selected side to launch the Julius’ Book. After their launch, either on behalf of themselves or the people of their State, Julius Agwu’s book raked in over N17million Launch money. While Mo Abudu also in the selected side launched 500 Copies of the Book at Cover Price.
While the Launch was on going, Alibaba was collaborating on other Comedians present at the Bash for a surprise birthday gift for one of their own. When the surprise was unveiled, it turned out it was a ‘ROASTING SESSION’ for Julius Agwu.
One after the other the Comedians took their turn to ‘ROAST’ Julius Agwu, and everyone enjoyed a good laugh. It was like attending an edition of Crack Ya Ribs.

WOW,They really had fun.
