Shading more light on the show, Managing Partner/CEO of Brownhill Events Centre, Mrs Julie Pinnick said, ‘Warri Again’ is a show aimed at rebranding Warri and making it a destination for entertainment.
“We can use entertainment to drive social and commerical activities in Warri. Before we started the show, people used to look at Warri from a negative perspective. I am happy that people are beginning to acquaint themselves with what Warri really stands for; peace, hospitality and warmth. The forthcoming show, I can tell you will be the biggest show ever to be organised in Africa. The vision is to keep using entertainment to drive the economy of Warri, she added.
