As a listener I desire just a little more than information. I always expect humanity in presentation. I desire creative presentation of any programme to meet with my concepts of seriousness and keenness in reaching out for entertainment options to programme presentation. I discovered the subject profiled lady, qualified in projecting a wholesome broadcast presence to listeners in her presentation of an early morning programme MORNING RIDE that seeks to task people on world events and current affairs so soothingly and engagingly.
She normally poses a question and keeps listeners in wholesome suspense through the entire time-span of her presentation. No matter the question, she bridges gaps with charm and Celine Dione’s sentimental tunes to rivet the listener through her fifty minutes or so in convenient un-boring stretches.
She shows amazing breath of research across continents with every subject she exposes in her presentation. She captivates the listener with attention to detail. She shows appropriate level of humanity and concern for the listener as she sorts answers with riveting humour and floods of gratitude to protagonists in her programme. I humbly suggest that few people are able to detach from listening in once her programme starts. Her persuasive feminine voice vibrant with emotional appeal to opposite sexes, compels unflinching attention. Her jokes humble and appealing come in unobtrusively at appropriate self- created gaps in her seasoned delivery of entertainment.
I wonder whether her deserved attainment of her capability heights is possible in 94.4 with its hero-worshipping role as property of a sitting governor breathing down subordinates’ necks especially as he depends on air waves solely for communicating with his worshippers. I sincerely wish she moved to a private broadcasting house where her quality will blaze her into instant prominence and comfort.
She ends her presentation with appropriate parting humour. One always wished that time should have stood still whenever her programme began. She is similar to Ifeyinwa Akubue of 100.5 in deep understanding of life and moral imperative of living. I would let Joyce win by a hair’s breadth for her research prowess.
