iROKING appoints new CEO

Nigerian digital music platform, iROKING, has announced the appointment of Jason Njoku as its new CEO. He will now return to take overall control of iROKING artist management.

Including all aspects of music distribution, including YouTube, iTunes and Amazon distribution, and oversee platform partnerships with the likes of Mxit and Eskimi.

"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", Njoku stated.

Njoku was the original founder and CEO of iROKING alongside his role at iROKOtv, described as the world's largest online catalogue of Nollywood movies.
