Veteran entertainer and social activist Charly Boy is set to combine his personal story with a campaign for men’s health as his memoir, 999 – The Memoir of Charly Boy, makes its London debut on September 29, 2026.

The event, scheduled to hold at Bryd Lounge, Hart Shoreditch, will also provide a platform for the presentation of the Charly Boy Foundation for Men to a London audience.

The foundation is focused on raising awareness about prostate cancer and encouraging greater attention to men’s health, particularly within the Black community.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo is expected to serve as Chief Host, while Dr Obioma Success Akagburuonye will be Co-Host. International music star Dr Alban is also expected at the event.

Charly Boy, who has been promoting the initiative across media platforms, said the London gathering would go beyond the formal presentation of his memoir.

According to him, the occasion is intended to connect his life story with a wider conversation about men’s health, purpose, legacy and giving back to society.

999 chronicles significant episodes in the life of the entertainer, whose career has spanned music, acting, television and social activism.

The memoir also explores the unconventional public persona that has defined much of his career and his reputation for challenging social and political conventions.

The London presentation comes as Charly Boy seeks to take both the memoir and his men’s health advocacy to audiences outside Nigeria, with other international destinations also being considered.

His prostate cancer campaign gives the event a particularly personal dimension.

Charly Boy has previously spoken publicly about his experience with prostate cancer, using his story to encourage men to pay greater attention to their health and undergo appropriate medical checks.

The London event is expected to extend that conversation to Nigerians and other Africans in the United Kingdom, while highlighting the importance of awareness and early detection.

In announcing the event, Charly Boy suggested that the memoir would reveal aspects of his life that have not previously been shared publicly.

“The stories wey you know? Na only small part,” he said.

He added that some of the experiences yet to be publicly discussed would form part of the conversation surrounding the London presentation.

The entertainer also encouraged Nigerians and other Africans living in London to attend the event rather than depend solely on videos and other content subsequently shared online.

The programme is scheduled to run from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on September 29, with organisers expected to release registration details ahead of the event.

Beyond introducing 999 to an international audience, the London gathering is expected to reinforce Charly Boy’s effort to use his personal experience to stimulate conversations around prostate cancer and men’s health.

For an entertainer whose public life has long been built around challenging convention, the latest campaign turns that attention towards an issue that is often discussed too late: encouraging men to take their health seriously before symptoms become difficult to ignore.
