Meet May Ellen Ezekiel Mofe-Damijo (1956-1996), fondly known as MEE, was a trailblazing Nigerian journalist, writer, and publisher.
Born in Takoradi, Ghana 🇬🇭, to Owogbenu and Victoria Ezekiel, MEE made a lasting impact on the media landscape.
MEE's illustrious career spanned several notable publications. She worked as a journalist for Sunday Concord from 1982 to 1984 and later served as assistant editor for Newswatch in 1985. Her editorial expertise also shaped Quality magazine, which she helmed from 1987.
As the publisher of Classique magazine, MEE showcased her passion for celebrity and entertainment journalism.
The magazine boasted an impressive roster of writers, including Dele Momodu, Ben Charles Obi, and Rudolf Okonkwo. MEE also authored two books, "Dream Maker" and "Center Spread," and hosted the popular TV talk show "Mee and You" on NTA 2 channel 5 in Lagos.
In her personal life, MEE was married to veteran actor Richard Mofe-Damijo. She had a daughter, Nichole Onome, from a previous marriage.
Tragically, MEE passed away in 1996 due to complications from surgery to remove fibroids, leaving behind a legacy of excellence in Nigerian journalism.
