As a member, Tejumola will benefit from a global network of industry leaders, fostering collaboration and innovation.

Tejumola’s exploits in the showbiz industry can be ascribed to her efforts in the successes of MultiChoice, the South African-owned cable TV.

Under her leadership, MultiChoice has produced popular television shows and award events including the Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) and the Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Award (AMVCA).
