Jos Entertainment PMAN Plateau BED Music CEO Elmore shares experience

Top music producer and CEO of BED Music Africa, Elmore Hodus also referred to as “Lord of The Beat” is one of the top entertainment entrepreneurs who is taking Jos Plateau state to greater heights especially with the recently held Music talent reality show “Pitch Perfect Naija”.
In this interview with matthewtegha blog, Elmore talks about his experience in the Jos entertainment industry and the funny incidents that happened when he ran as Governor for PMAN Plateau state.

The Jos Entertainment Industry and BED Music Africa:

Elmore: The entertainment industry in plateau state is really getting bigger every day, the acts coming in, events, entertainers getting endorsed and signing contracts, and a whole lot of things. It’s really really growing, and I thank God for that.
My drive in the state has always come from what others are doing outside the state, I went to Lagos and learnt a lot and I have promised my self that plateau state entertainment will be massively known around the world.
I went, I saw, and I must say I also conquered. So when I see a lot of talented youths running down the street and being used for social vices, cultism and other criminal activities it gets me sober, however, with the interest of youths in entertainment, things are changing for the better and I thank God.
The challenges are enormous, ranging from how to gain acceptance, information (radio, bloggers, etc), Funding, government support and many more… but we hope and believe things will change soon especially if everyone puts in the right effort.

About Pitch Perfect Nigeria:
Elmore: Pitch Perfect Naija is another brainchild of BED Music Africa which was launched in 2021. Pitch Perfect is a show targeted at promoting the entertainment industry and giving it a better shape as something to talk about especially for upcoming talents. The show is designed for musicians around Nigeria, whereby a specific number of auditioned artiste will be in a house for a specific number of weeks and battle themselves thereby showing their musical talent after which, the number of votes the individual have determines if u stay or get evicted before the grand finale.
The show recorded success in its median edition and is scheduled to hold yearly.

PMAN and election of new state executives:
Elmore: My experience at that time when I came out for the PMAN governorship aspirant was funny. Funny in a sense that the electoral officials were not straightforward, they actually have their plans, but we are watching.
The electoral committee kept on changing dates and at last, we didn’t hear anything from them anymore. The next thing I heard and saw was that they chose some persons who they felt will do the work (I term that really funny). The election was never held unless they did without my knowledge.

Finally on the entertainment Industry:
Elmore: Moving forward I am still resolute in doing my best to make sure the entertainment industry goes to a better state with or without PMAN. I and the BED Music team have a lot of things that would be unfolded very soon.

Am very sure that in no time even Jos-based entertainers will buy cars and build houses with the money they made via their talent. It’s a box God is helping us to build and I won’t relent unless God says otherwise.

Stakeholders from across Plateau State have issued a communiqué outlining key challenges and recommendations for addressing farmer-herder conflicts, criminality, and land disputes in the state.

The communiqué was released at the end of a two-day Multi-Level and Multi-Sectoral Roundtable on Sustainable Peace Infrastructure held at Novel Suites, Jos, from April 21 to 22, 2026.

The roundtable brought together government officials, traditional rulers, civil society organizations, security agencies, women and youth groups, as well as other critical actors to deliberate on strategies for strengthening peace and stability in Plateau State.

Focus on Dialogue and Sustainable Peace

Participants said the engagement provided a platform to examine the root causes of recurring conflicts and develop actionable strategies to promote peaceful coexistence.

The discussions, which included two panel sessions, explored issues around criminality, land disputes, and farmer-herder tensions, with emphasis on building trust, enhancing coordination, and strengthening existing peace structures.

Key Challenges Identified

In the communiqué, stakeholders highlighted several interconnected challenges fueling insecurity in the state.

Top among them were persistent security threats, including cattle rustling, kidnapping, illegal mining, and arms trafficking, as well as difficulties in identifying perpetrators, particularly alleged foreign elements.

They also pointed to weak law enforcement, limited trust between communities and security agencies, and operational challenges faced by security personnel.

Farmer-herder tensions were attributed to crop destruction, retaliatory attacks, underage grazing, and increasing competition over land and natural resources due to population growth.

Land-related conflicts, including land grabbing, poor documentation, displacement, and weak enforcement of land laws, were also identified as major drivers of violence.

Other concerns raised included governance gaps, lack of political will, inadequate identification systems, poverty, and limited access to modern agricultural practices.

Participants further decried the role of misinformation and unprofessional reporting in escalating tensions, as well as the impact of gender-based violence and the marginalization of women and vulnerable groups.

Stakeholders Proffer Solutions

To address these challenges, stakeholders called for strengthened security and justice systems through improved collaboration among security agencies, enhanced intelligence gathering, and the deployment of technology.

They also recommended continuous dialogue between farmers and herders, establishment of early warning systems, and the creation of joint platforms for resolving disputes.

On land governance, participants urged the government to enforce land laws, improve land documentation, and ensure fair resettlement processes for displaced communities.

They further advocated for the adoption of modern farming and livestock practices, including access to financial and technical support, improved seeds, and better farm security measures.

Stakeholders emphasized the need for inclusive governance, calling for the integration of herders into formal security structures and stronger collaboration between government and communities.

They also stressed the importance of responsible journalism and conflict-sensitive reporting, as well as the enforcement of laws addressing gender-based violence and the inclusion of women in peacebuilding efforts.

Commitment to Lasting Peace

The stakeholders reaffirmed their collective commitment to addressing the root causes of conflict and building resilient communities across Plateau State.

They urged the government to implement past recommendations, strengthen citizen engagement, improve population data systems, and facilitate the safe return of displaced persons.

The communiqué concluded with a call for sustained collaboration among all actors to ensure a peaceful, stable, and prosperous Plateau State.
