As part of activities marking his 50th birthday anniversary, The Sun Newspaper Cartoon Editor, Mr. Albert Ohams, will hold an exhibition titled: Albert Ohams: 35 Years Strokes Of Master Cartoonist from August 29 till 31. The solo exhibition, which will hold at Four Point by Sheraton Hotel, Oniru Chieftaincy Estates, Victoria Island, Lagos, will feature 50 pieces of cartoons.
The collection varies from political to social and economic issues captured in diverse styles and humorous imaginations. One unique feature in his works is the use of humour to douse political tension and depth of the topic.
The exhibition will attract dignitaries such as the Minister of Labour and Productivity Dr. Chris Ngige; Prince Eze Madumere, former Deputy Governor of Imo State; Chief Solomon Ogbonna, President Ohaneze Ndigbo, Lagos and Ambassador Ayo Olukanni, National Association of Chambers of Commerce, Mines and Agriculture (NACCIMA) Director-General.
Ohams joined the weekly Eagle Newspaper owned by Dr. K.O Mbadiwe, in Aba, 35 years ago after leaving Bishop Shanahan College, Orlu, Imo State. Today, the Mgbidi, Imo State-born cartoonist has carved a niche for himself in the profession, having won many media awards.
