More entrepreneurs lose hope of winning N10m at The Next Titan

More entrepreneurs lose hope of winning N10m at The Next Titan

The show is sponsored by Heritage Bank, in association with Haven Homes and Sifax Group.

The Next Titan, Nigeria’s foremost entrepreneurial reality TV show, has had a rollercoaster of emotions from the viewers and contestants as five more contestants get evicted.

The entrepreneurs evicted from the show are; Stella Okenwa, Oluwadara Olaifa, Mordi Onyeka, Henry Tezuegwe and Kelvin Steve.

Though bringing their “A” game on the show and being remarkably impressive, they got knocked out due to stronger contenders.

At each of the board room sessions, the presentation to the judges and crossfire between both groups was intense. But, after the judges reviewed their given tasks thoroughly, the victor team got the spoils while the losing team nominated their teammates for possible eviction.

For the evicted contestants, the dream to win the N10 million cash prize has been deferred.

Nevertheless, they expressed utmost gratitude to The Next Titan for allowing them to have participated in the show, as well as, the knowledge acquired from the academy and its business leaders which would apply to their lives and businesses.

While Stella and Mordi are hairpreneurs with dreams of importing the best sort out human hairs, as well as, revamping and making their own Nigerian made wigs, Oluwadara is the CEO of Smart Homes Energy Solutions, a power provider that offers power as a service and gives users the ability to monitor their homes and businesses from a smartphone anywhere in the world for as little as N6000 a month.

Henry is the founder of Hybrid Electric Power Solution Unit (HEPSU), a battery-powered electric generator of the present day innovation that generates electricity without the use of fossil fuel and without having to use external sources of power (sun intensity, water volume, wind velocity, biomass).

While kelvin on the other hand is the founder of EcoEnergy Africa, a technology-based company that focuses on converting agricultural and domestic waste into biofuels such as charcoal briquettes.

On November 20, 2020, Ufuoma Ilensanmi, general manager, Haven Homes, took to Arise TV to throw light on the importance of the government empowering the present-day youths, as well as, the impact of The Next Titan on the present economy. The boss of Haven Homes, who is an associate sponsor of The Next Titan, expressed that she has always been one to identify with youths due to their resilience and will to achieve and succeed.

The show, which airs on African Magic Sundays 4-5 pm and Tvc Sundays 8 pm9pm, is judged by seasoned business leaders including; Kyari Bukar, former chairman, Nigerian Economic Summit Group; Tonye Cole, CEO, Sahara Group; Lillian Olubi, CEO, EFG HERMES Nigeria and Chris Parkes, CEO, CPMS Africa.

The show is sponsored by Heritage Bank, in association with Haven Homes and Sifax Group.

According to the organisers of the show, The Next Titan’s vision is to curb the unemployment rate in the country and impact the lives of every contestant who comes on the show.
