Frank Edoho dropped as "Who wants to be a millionnaire" host. Who gets the job next?

Following the withdrawal of Telecom giant MTN as sponsor of the popular television game show Who wants to be a millionaire. The management of the show announced that it was ending indefinitely.
Meanwhile Ultima Studios, the production company of the show has secured another sponsor and will soon commence shooting the show's fourteenth season.

However, long time host, Frank Edoho will not be returning when the show is back running. Managing Director of Ultima Studio, Feyi Ayeni revealed that Frank Edoho would not be returning because the show needed a younger presenter.

Although Frank threw shits at them by saying it was he tgat actually left due to disagreement with Altima Studios.

Here is a list of seven media personalities that could likely replace Frank Edoho.

1. IK Osakioduwa

If there were a hall of fame for comperes and presenters in Nigeria, IK would definitely be in it. His experience with Big Brother Africa would also count for a lot.

2. Ebuka Obi Uchendu

Speaking of Big Brother, Ebuka finished third on the first Nigerian version of the reality show but he has been the most visible contestant since 2007. He had a handul of television jobs and most recently hosted the 2017 edition of Big Brother Naija.

3. Joseph Benjamin

Joseph Benjamin

Joseph Benjamin is known more for his work as Project Fame than his Nollywood career. He would fit in well at asking 'Is that your final answer...?'

4. Freeze

Controversial, yes. Opinionated, yes? But Freeze's media experience started in the 90's and he is one of Nigeria's most easily recognized faces- and voices.

5. Frank Donga

Kayode Idowu, the man who plays viral comic Frank Donga would amaze when he steps out of character. Witty and very well spoken, fans would tune in just to hear him talk.

6. Falz

Falz is a triple threat: he raps, he acts and going by the 2016 edition of the Headies, he can host as well. Plus he's the youngest on this list.

7. Toke Makinwa

If you called Ms. Makinwa the hardest working woman in showbiz, you would not be wrong: she's on radio, she's on TV, she's online- she's everywhere there's a microphone! Besides, after thirteen years, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire is ready for a female host.
