Bimbo Esho pledges to uphold late father’s musical legacy

Bimbo Esho, Managing Director of Evergreen Musical Company, pledged on Friday to continue to build on her late father’s legacy of promoting Nigerian music.

Esho’s late father, Femi Esho, who was the Chairman of Evergreen Musical Company, died June 17 after a brief illness in Lagos.

In an interview with the newsmen in Lagos, Esho said her father would be buried on Aug. 30 in Lagos.

She said, having learned from her father while alive, including his mistakes, she remained confident to continue to contribute meaningfully to the Nigerian music industry.

“Watching him and the respect that was accorded him in society made me know that there must not be any slip from my side because any mistake I make will negatively affect what he stands for in the industry,” she said.

Esho said she would miss her late father’s humble nature and genuine love towards others.

“My father’s humility is something I will miss—his humility and genuine love. It is very difficult for you to see people who have genuine love for people,” she said.
