Akinlolu Jekins: UK’s Hottest Event consultant

Akinlolu Jikiemi who is popular known for his nickname “Akinlolu Jekins” is one of the UK’s top event consultants and managers. He has always been passionate about throwing events that people will remember for a lifetime. As a young man he was always excited to go out to different shows and parties. Although being a guest at the party was fun, he was more interested in organizing the events. 

Before moving to the UK, Akinlolu Jekins studied hard and obtained his bachelor’s studies in Medical Microbiology from one of Nigeria’s first private universities. However, working in the field of medicine just didn’t cut it for Akinlolu. From as far back as he can remember, entertainment has always been a big part of who he was.

Akinlolu’s Journey In The Entertainment Industry

In 2004 Akinlolu decided it was time to start following his dreams and began following DJ Shola B and working as his promoter assistant. He had a lot of fun being the DJ’s assistant, but had a desire to do more. He began working at different shows as a freelance promoter, and in 2009 he registered his first entertainment company Slimz Promotion UK LTD curved out of his promoter name “Mr slimz” given when he first started out.

His first big job was working on eLDee’s “IS IT YOUR MONEY UK TOUR”, which was an incredibly successful tour. This tour opened up the door for Akinlolu and afterwards he had the opportunity to promote a lot of important club events throughout the UK, allowing him to work with some of the biggest names in UK entertainment promotions.

Over the course of a year, Akinlolu learned a lot from working alongside other experienced promoters. He took everything he learned and founded Akinlolu Jekins & Co LTD, a promotion company that provides a wide range of services. Those include:

Event consultancy

Although Akinlolu has helped promote a lot of music events, one aspect of entertainment he makes sure to focus on is African comedy. Promoting African heritage is very close to Akinlolu’s heart which is why he wants to give more opportunities to African entertainers.
