Earlier today, Yhemo Lee, a prominent nightlife activist and leading club promoter in Africa, took to social media to share his unexpected journey into the nightlife industry. In a self-reflection post, he recounted how he transitioned from someone who didn’t enjoy clubbing or alcohol for the first 26 years of his life to becoming a celebrated figure in the African nightlife scene.
Despite facing criticism and being trolled for not having a “life“, Yhemo Lee has carved a niche for himself in the club and event spaces in Nigeria. He takes pride in his work and enjoys it, investing his time and resources into it. The industry is as much a legitimate sector in Nigeria as any other, and Yhemo Lee is proud to be contributing to its growth and success.
As a club promoter, Yhemo Lee understands the importance of creating memorable experiences for club-goers. Recently, he had the opportunity to learn more about the production process of champagne, thanks to Champagne Laurent-Perrier. He hopes to use this knowledge to sensitize consumers on the products being consumed in the nightlife industry.
By sharing his story, Yhemo Lee hopes to inspire others to pursue their passions and to break free from societal expectations. His journey serves as a reminder that it’s never too late to discover and pursue one’s true calling.
