On Friday 20th April 2012, the anticipated maiden edition of The Abuja Young Entrepreneurs Awards (AYE Awards) took place at the Abuja International Conference Centre. The event which was tagged a night of glamour and entertainment, was hosted by Ebuka Obi-Uchendu and Matilda Duncan of Rhythm FM Abuja.
Attendees enjoyed rib cracking jokes by Ajebo and Chigurl and danced to musical performances by White Nigerian with Terry da Rapman and Omawumi.
The event ended with a spectacular performance by Wizkid. Don't mind Wizkid dressing at this corporate event, organized by well-trained people. "I was once told that when you are in Rome, you behave like a Roman"
