Built in 1887, the Glover Memorial Hall (GMH) is a heritage
building for theatre and performing arts in Lagos
Mrs Uzamat Akinbile-Yussuf, the Commissioner of Tourism,
Arts and Culture, alongside the Permanent Secretary, Princess Adenike
Adedoyin-Ajayi and Director of Theatre, Mr Odusote handed over the management
of the hall to Lufodo after a rigorous
bidding process for the concession to manage it, which Lufodo had won.
Lufodo, in partnership with Ciuci Consulting-a leading
consulting and operations management firm will be managing GMH for the next 5
years. This partnership will have both Ms. Joke Silva and Mrs Ifeoma Monye as
co-CEOs. Joke Silva is in charge of artistic direction and Ifeoma Monye

Speaking at the event, Ms Joke Silva thanked the Lagos State
government for their trust in Lufodo and assured them that their trust has not
and will not be misplaced.
Mrs. Ifeoma Monye a partner at Ciuci Consulting said: “This
handover is symbolic and shows that Lagos State is interested in the
development of the performing arts industry. With more Public-Private
Partnerships, there is no limit to the growth that the great state and nation
will experience.”
