Timi Dakolo
Timi Dakolo (born; January 20, 1981) is a Nigerian singer. He emerged winner of the inaugural season of ''Idols West Africa'' in 2007, at the expense of the amazingly talented Omawumi Megbele. With his victory, he got a recording contract with Sony BMG, in addition to other prizes.
==Childhood/Early Career==
Timi Dakolo was born in Accra, Ghana to a Nigerian father, Bayelsa-native David and a Ghanaian mother, Norah, who died when Dakolo was thirteen. Despite being born in Ghana, Timi has a Nigerian passport and does not claim dual citizenship. His grandmother Ateni Dakolo, who lived in Port Harcourt raised him, and he credits her as his early singing teacher. So deep was their relationship that Timi declined an offer to move to Lagos with his parents, opting to stay back in Port-harcourt with his grandmother.
Timi started singing in church at the age of twelve. In 2003 he joined the singing group ''Purple Love'' as a founding member. They dominated the Port Harcourt club circuit, but disbanded in 2005 as all its members had gained admission into the University of Port Harcourt. Around that same period, Timi won a local talent hunt contest ''G.E FACTO'' held in Port Harcourt.
