On 2nd December 2013, iROKING, Nigeria's leading
digital music platform, announces that its new CEO is Jason Njoku.
Njoku was the original founder and CEO of iROKING
alongside his role at iROKOtv, the world's largest online catalogue of
Nollywood movies. Njoku will now return to take overall control of iROKING
artist management, all aspects of music distribution, including YouTube, iTunes
and Amazon distribution, and oversee platform partnerships with the likes of
Mxit and Eskimi.
Speaking on returning to a company he founded, Jason
Njoku says: "What we've built with iROKING in its 23 month history is pretty
incredible. There's a lot of chat amongst the technorati about the potential of
the African online music space - now is the time to put words into action,
hence why I'm taking a more hands-on approach to growing iROKING from a solid
online Nigerian music distributor into a behemoth of a pan-African music
platform".
As of 2014, there will also be a renewed focus on
the monetization of Nigerian digital content, as well as greater emphasis on
strategic partnerships with leading companies in the industry.
