Yoma Dickson
@yomadickson
I voice brands live on Lagos radio and create spoken-word experiences for audiences.
What I'm looking for
At Cool FM Lagos, I voice live commercial reads, sponsored segments, announcements and brand campaigns across major shows, including The Road Show and After Hours. I’ve represented brands including MTN, Coca-Cola, Heineken, Maggi, Knorr, Milo, Emirates and Stanbic IBTC.
I also support Kids FM Lagos, covering hype rotations across its schedule while switching formats and audiences between two stations in one day. Previously, I delivered brand messaging at Nigeria Info Lagos and Wazobia FM Lagos, including Pidgin and English commercial reads for mass-market audiences.
I create and host live experiences beyond the studio, from red carpets and outside broadcasts to weddings and listening parties. I’ve also written and anchored a weekly book-review programme, presented Pidgin news, and reported television news during my internship at MITV.
As Yoma Dickson, I write and perform spoken word tailored to each room, with 20-plus performances across venues and events including Terra Culture and People of Poetry. I also create artist content, host the six-episode Spotify podcast Yoma’s Space, and produce videos end to end from script to shoot and edit.
