However, organisers said this year’s edition will be a huge one, with an estimated 100 million viewers.
Speaking at a Press Conference in Abuja on Monday, the President of EESA 2021, Alhaji Musa Ibrahim Mantu, said the event is poised to host over 600 attendees, drawn from target demographic segments, including public sector, members of the diplomatic community, lifestyle aficionados, hospitality practitioners, youth and mass market creative entrepreneurs.
Alhaji Mantu also said there would be 60 participating countries with a galaxy of stars expected to light up the event.
Though, the organisers were reluctant to name the entertainment stars who will grace the event, Daily Trust on Sunday gathered that Hollywood’s Oscar and Grammy award-winning actor Jamie Foxx and British actor Idris Elba are likely to host the event.
