Media mogul Somto Precious Monanu, better known as Pino Vibes, and the founder of the renowned Naira Gang and entertainment platform, Gossipmill, is making waves with his latest high-profile purchases in Lagos.
Recently, Pino has expanded his real estate portfolio with the acquisition of a luxurious mansion in the upscale Lekki area. This property, located in one of Lagos’s most coveted neighborhoods, signifies Pino’s growing prominence in the media and entertainment industry.
In addition to his real estate investment, Pino has indulged in a significant automotive splurge. He has acquired two luxury SUVs: a 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLE, renowned for its advanced technology and supreme comfort, and an elegant Porsche SUV, likely from the Cayenne or Macan line.
The combined value of these vehicles reportedly exceeds $1 million, underscoring his refined taste in high-end automobiles.
These acquisitions come at a time when Pino’s influence in the Nigerian media landscape is on the rise. His ambitions extend beyond media; he is also making strides as a musical artist and label owner under the name Pino Pallacio. His self-description as a “Star Maker! Media Mogul, Singer, Activist, Tech Bro” reveals his diverse interests and goals, suggesting that his ventures span far beyond traditional media.
These recent developments not only highlight Pino’s personal achievements but also reflect the increasing influence and financial power of Nigeria’s digital media entrepreneurs. As the boundaries between traditional and digital media continue to evolve, figures like Pino Vibes are emerging as prominent representatives of the new era of African media moguls.
