Monalisa Chinda And Joseph Benjamin Support Bloke Magazine/Bloke Lounge's "MINDBENDING" Domestic Violence Themed Event This Sunday - See Details Inside & Please Spread The Word

BLOKE MAGAZINE presents its bi-monthly music and mingling event hosted BLOKE LOUNGE titled, MINDBENDING.  

The spot light this time around, is on the growing menace of Domestic Violence and the plight of women living under this scourge. From its first edition of Bloke Lounge, the organisers have emphasised on the casual atmosphere that would encourage people to mingle and expand their network, laying greater emphasis on creating a hub, a ‘mixer’ of some sort, against the backdrop of music. 

Bloke Lounge has succeeded in the last 3 editions to pull the musical talents of OC Ukeje, Timi Dakolo, Ibiyemi, Praiz, Eric Arubayi, Jodie, Pita and a host of others. A few musical surprises including TV superstar Yvonne Vixen Ekwere and Fashion entrepreneur Uche Nnaji, have also graced the stage.

"The ‘Girls Night-Out’ themed event will have a large attendance of beautiful and powerful women throwing their weight behind the cause" Omena adds. MINDBENDING kicks off at 5pm on Sunday 20th May at the brand-new Shaunz Bar and lounge, Murphis Plaza, Sanusi Fafunwa, Victoria Island. It would feature a private screening of ‘Big Daddy’, a short film on rape by Chris Ihidero, a short skit by Lala Akindoju, Joseph Benjamin on the mic, and Kome’s performance of Uche Jombo’s movie soundtrack, "Damage".
