previously known as Kids Got Talent & Music Meets Runway, is a platform set up specially for young, talented and gifted youngsters all over Africa. We want to raise generations of excellent young Africans who will shine their lights the brightest, thereby inspiring other African children to shine as well...Until we’re a continent filled, not only with natural resources but with the best human resources in the world. We scout for talent in music, acting, poetry, spoken word, comedy, playing of instruments, modelling, rap, photography, writing, beatboxing and many more. This vision started many years ago in a classroom in Lagos, Nigeria: A young teacher decided that the best students weren't only those who excelled in subjects but also those who excelled in non-academic fields as well. The goal is to raise influencers who will impact the world positively. Africa, has for too long, been on the back burner. Now is our time to take our rightful position in world affairs and lead, not from the back but from the front. So far, there have been 5 winners on our platform - 1 from the on-site show and 4 from our virtual competitions (visit our Instagram page @kidsandteenstalent.africa for more information). Elzaphan Ayi from Calabar won the grand prize of half a million Naira at our most recent talent contest on the 17th of April, 2022. To join our next competition, to stand a chance to win the GRAND PRIZE OF ONE MILLION NAIRA, please click here. Kola Lenson is the founder of Kids & Teens Talent Africa. He's a teacher, talent scout, author, public speaker and photographer. He wrote the best selling book - YOUR KID IS SUPER TALENTED."
