, The
Reality Entertainment
, organisers of the yearly event which is in its sixth
edition, is striving hard
 to fill the vacuum left by the highly respected culture aficionado,
broadcaster, patron of the arts and diplomats, who died on Thursday June 21,

Search for credible persons suitable for the position has been concluded
and as a result,  Alhaji (Dr)

has been announced as the new Patron of the
 Nigerian Broadcasters Merit Awards. 

Dr. Ahmed Tijjani
Ramalan
, the Executive Chairman, ATAR COMMUNICATION Nigeria Limited, needs
little or no introduction to those who are conversant with Kaduna broadcasting
industry. Aside being the owner of Liberty Radio, Tashar Yanci 91.7 FM and
Liberty TV, the upwardly mobile radio and TV stations in Kaduna, the Business
Admin Graduate of American University of Richmond, London, has written his
names in gold foroutstanding contributions to the growth of quality
broadcasting in the Northern part of Nigeria, hence his Lifetime Achievement
award at the last year’s edition of NBMA.

Dr. Ramalan, the former honourable executive at Kaduna Ministry of
Information and Home Affairs, is the current Chairman of the Northern
Broadcasters Owners Association (NBOA). A Fellow Chartered Institute of
Logistic and Transport United Kingdom; (FCILT) Fellow Chartered Institute of
Shipping of Nigeria (FCIS) and Member Nautical Institute, United Kingdom (MNI).

He is also a Fellow Advertising Practitioners Council of Nigeria
(APCON), as well as the Pioneer Executive Chairman of Joint Maritime
Industrial Council (JOMALIC).  He was the Pioneer Chairman of the Nigerian
Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA).

Dr. Ramalan is a great philanthropist and an astute businessman whose
passion for broadcasting has launched in the league of highly revered radio and
TV station owners.




Speaking on his new role as the Patron of the Nigerian Broadcasters
Merit Awards, he said, “I find it a
rather unique privilege to have been approached to be patron of the
Broadcasting Merit Awards in the aftermath of the "larger than
life" image and enormous impact of the inimitable, highly
revered former Grand patron, the immense Ambassador Segun Olusola.
May his soul continue to rest in peace.  It is indeed a challenge I look
forward to, if only to attempt to match what the mercurial icon of the
Arts and Media had done. I can only hope to contribute my quota to uphold and
further uplift the standard set so far,”
Dr. Ramalan said.

It would be recalled that a seasoned broadcaster, Femi Sowoolu was announced by the
organization in 2013 as NBMA’s first patron.  































However, this year’s edition of the prestigious award NBMA is now
scheduled for Saturday January 23rd, 2016.
