Prince died about two months after the demise of his longtime protégé and former girlfriend, Vanity. He was working on his memoirs tentatively titled “the beautiful ones” with his brother when he passed on.

Monye said she is endeared to the late singer for his music and passion for growing the careers of female talents.

She said: ”I am celebrating Prince for his hardwork and contributions, largely in building up careers of young female talents and the established ones like Lady Chaka Khan, Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, Alicia Keys, Sinead O’Connor of “Nothing Compares” and many others to fame. Many of his band members are women including his most recent band (3rdEyeGirl). Prince throughout his career championed women in business.”

The event according to Monye is being organised through her NGO, WINAI Women Nigeria Initiative, and will hold on Saturday, July 30, 2016, at the Blue Sea Garden and Nite Club, Akilo, Ogba-Ikeja, Lagos.
