An inspiring voice from Nigeria’s creative corridors is now setting the tone for Africa’s digital future.
At just 30, Kelvin Elamah has evolved from covering events on university campuses to becoming a key figure shaping how African businesses communicate and connect. His transition from humble beginnings starting as a media intern years ago in the entertainment industry, to Head of Media, Content, and Publications at PressOne Africa is not just a career milestone, it’s a powerful message to every young creative with a dream. Your passion can lead you anywhere, even across industries.
“I’ve always believed in the power of storytelling,” Kelvin says. “Whether through a camera lens or through the voice of a brand, the goal has always been to connect, inspire, and drive action.”
From FUTA to the Future
Kelvin’s roots trace back to the Federal University of Technology, Akure, where he studied Industrial Chemistry. But rather than following a traditional path, he used his university years to build a media portfolio that would launch his creative career. Starting out as a correspondent for Dynamix Magazine, he embraced storytelling and digital strategy before digital media even had a name in most classrooms.
Climbing the Creative Ladder
Kelvin started his media journey at HipTv, where he honed his content production skills under the mentorship of industry professionals. He later joined Pulse Nigeria as a video intern, eventually rising to become Head of Video. The climb wasn’t easy, but it was intentional.
“I never waited for perfect conditions,” Kelvin explains. “I worked with what I had, learned from every opportunity, and surrounded myself with mentors who challenged and refined my vision.”
A Bridge Between Creativity and Strategy
What sets Kelvin apart is his ability to merge creativity with business strategy. At Pulse he didn’t just produce content, he led teams, developed campaigns, and managed large-scale multimedia projects. Today at PressOne Africa, he’s combining that storytelling acumen with telecommunications strategy to help small and medium enterprises (SMEs) streamline how they engage customers.
“This move isn’t a detour, it’s a continuation,” Kelvin says of his transition to tech. “Content and communication are intertwined. Whether you’re an artist or a CEO, how you tell your story matters.”
Giving Back to Build Forward
While building a high-profile career, Kelvin has never stopped mentoring the next wave of creatives. Whether guiding interns, sharing insights on content strategy, or simply being accessible to young professionals, he sees his journey as proof that with consistency, curiosity, and a heart for learning, anything is possible.
“My mentors changed my life,” he reflects. “To follow in their footsteps, I believe in doing the exact same for others. Talent grows where it’s watered.”
