The evening began with appetising performances from several upcoming stars like Anderson Afrolover, Ricky Sani, Cheso, Dunnie, Keline and ArrowMafia who dished out different genres of Music.

Niniola, Jesse Jagz and Positive force band followed suit with hit after hits from their album which  kept the audiences really excited as they attempted to sing along with them.

Then came the big fish himself, Femi Kuti who put up a virtuoso performance as he took them on a music journey beginning with some of his smashing hits like ‘Wonder Wonder’, ‘Survival, Plenty’ ‘Nonsense’, ‘Live for Today’, ‘Sorry Sorry’, ‘Truth Don Die’, ‘Beng Beng Beng’, ‘The World is Changing’, ‘No Place for my Dream and Changes’.

He also left mouths ajar as he played a long mono-note on his saxophone for over ten minutes without stop.

True to his nature, he used the opportunity to speak out against social injustice, corruption and indeed any form of social vices plaguing the Nigerian state as he stood for what it means to be a Nigerian.
