Speaking after recruiting the youngsters, CEO and Founder of ‘Teen Africa TV’ Charles Novia, said the presenters who will also double as Brand Ambassadors are some of the best teen talents in the country.

“We have assembled the next breakout youth talents who will take over the entertainment scene in Africa and the world in a few years and TATV is the natural springboard for these talents to ‘blow’,” Novia said.
