I can't believe I am yet to reported about the biggest thing happening in the whole of West Africa right now. Idols West Africa has arrived and the search begins for the first West African Idol – a solo singing sensation who will be able to represent West Africa at home and abroad.

Idols West Africa is open to any person between the ages of 18 and 30 (as of 1 January 2007), who are residents of the West African countries of - Benin, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Cote d'Ivoire, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Saint Helena, Senegal, Sierra Leone and Togo.

Castings have already been done in Lagos, Abuja, Calabar and Ghana and 24 finalists have already been Selected by the three JUDGES comprising of Nigerian Afro beat musician Dede Mabiaku, Ghanian singing sensation Nana Abrewa and American born-Nigerian based radio DJ, Dan Foster.

All 24 contestants are presently holed up in a hotel at Ikeja in lagos, having voice lessons and its like. Goodluck to all of them. Maybe the best 'man' win!
