Chibuike Josh Alfred, nicknamed Josh2Funny, a highly regarded performer, has completed plans for the ‘Josh2Funny Live in Campus’ tour across Nigerian university campuses in collaboration with prominent entertainment mastermind and Chief Executive Officer of Engraced Events, Mr. Itoto Emmanuel.
The event is expected to provide exciting entertainment on university campuses while also boosting the showbiz industry and exploring talent discovery initiatives.
Josh2Funny, who has appeared on the highly popular American Got Talent (AGT) show, told journalists that the tour provides an opportunity to engage with his fans across university campuses, allowing for a more intimate effort at community building.
According to him, “I have had a considerable good career run these past few years. I had a massive campus tour in 2019. It was highly successful and now I want to go on the road again with my friends.
“This period I want to connect with my fans across campuses in Nigeria. I have travelled the world, been at the biggest stages but now I want my fans across our campuses to connect with my brand in a refreshing new way.”
Mr. Itoto Emmanuel, the show’s organiser, stated that the tour is a continuation of a well-established touring experience that featured Oga Sabinus, also known as Mr. Funny, in its previous edition, and urged brands to use the tour to reach out to their customers on campus.
He stated that the show is returning following the success of the first one, which took university campuses by storm, and that ‘Josh2Funny Live in Campus’ promises even more fun.
“We are excited to be working with Josh2Funny on this tour because he has a popular following among Nigerians. The show will also serve as a platform for fans to connect with their customers even as it will also serve as a platform for advocacy against social vices such as cultism, drug abuse and violence,” he said.
This will further expand the ‘Live in Campus’ being run by Engraced Events. In 2023, the company collaborated with Oga Sabinus to organise Sabinus Live on Campus, which toured six university campuses across Nigeria and featured thrilling performances by A-list musicians, comedians, and other entertainers.
