increase in level of competition makes the show all the more interesting.
‘There is a lot of competition, new voices, new faces, I can’t wait to hear them blossom and go up the ranks as we whittle down to the finalists later on as the weeks go by,’ he said.
Nigerian Idol focuses on discovering Nigerian youths with talent in music and giving them a unique platform to take shots at stardom. The eventual winner goes home with N7.5 million cash
reward, a brand new car, a recording deal worth N7.5 million and some high- end devices.
