All is
now set for the emergence of the winner of this season’s edition of the Nigerian
Idol.
The two
last contenders, K-Peace and Dolu, went down the wire during
their last competitive performances at the weekend with both performing four
songs apiece.
Both beat off competitions from ten other top 12 finalists
particularly the trio of Nex2, Preye and Classic
Tunez, to get to the final.
The contestant with the higher number of votes from the viewing
public will be crowned the winner.
The eventual winner will be rewarded with N7.5 million cash
reward, a brand new SUV, a recording deal worth N7.5 million with South-Africa’s
Universal Music label and some high-end
devices.
Nigerian international recording artiste, Asa, real name, Bukola
Elemide, will be the main act this weekend when she takes to the stage
to offer top-quality entertainment at the grand finale of the season five of
the Nigerian Idol reality Show.
The France-based pop legend will be leading other acts in
separate performances to draw the curtains on the fifth season of the leading
music reality show. The other performers on the day include the top 12
finalists and the celebrity judges: the trio of Dede Mabiaku, an afro
beat legend; R
& B crooner, Darey ‘Art’ Alade; and jazz sensation, Yinka Davies, all of whom
will be bringing to the table some of the hits that brought them to limelight
as either performing or recording artistes.
Executive Producer, Optima Media Group (OMG), Ugochi
Pedro, licence holders for Nigerian Idol, said this will be a
reflection of the brand’s sustained connection with the millions of individuals
and families as the leading music reality show.
“Asa is well-respected for what she has done for herself and the
country using music. There is no doubt these young talents look up to people
like her. This is why we are glad about the fact she will be part of our
history-making team this year,” she said.
