Empire Mates Entertainment, EME, has officially announced the signing of singer-songwriter Niyola, thus making the diva first on the label.

Bankole Wellington, CEO of EME and singer, popularly known as Banky W, disclosed this recently in Lagos.

“EME has come a long way; we have been accepted and supported by all. That support has birthed so many great things. And we are happy to announce our expansion as we take up new talents, new challenges, and seek new ways to deliver beautiful African music to the world,” Banky W said.

Niyola, a smooth and sultry singer, who has one album to her name with a couple of hit singles that has attracted many to her, is the first female to be signed on the label.
