Nigerian Idol: 17 talents make next round as theatre week begins

By Gbenga Bada

 

After four weeks of auditions, 17 talents made the next round as the Nigerian Idol theatre week kicked off.

The theatre week began with the 68 lucky contestants battling for a chance to become the next Nigerian Idol.

In the fifth week, the contestants were paired into groups to see who would showcase real talent and not just an audition wonder. Out of the 68 contestants that made it into theatre week, and 39 to the group selection, only 17 contestants progressed to the next round.

As expected, some of the contestants were outstanding and progressed into the next round, while it was the end of the road for others.

The 68 contestants were grouped according to their voices and trained to perform as a group for the judges.

The much tougher group selections saw contestants putting in their best to work with teammates while retaining their star power.

The group stage featured an amazing array of songs from Burna Boy’s Wonderful to Teni’s Billionaire.

For the theatre week, the judges did not just assess the voices of the contestants, they also looked out for the ability to maintain composure on stage and teamwork.

Star, however, did not get the memo. She expressed her dislike for her teammates as soon as she was grouped. And when Comfort, unfortunately, forgot her lines on stage, she let it get to her and her performance was underwhelming. Luckily, the team had Agbutun to hold the bar, and he did a marvelous job.

While some let the pressure get to them and forgot their lines, others like Godwin recovered quickly and gave a beautiful performance. Some contestants were also victims of their teammates’ flaws and others were trying to outdo their teammates forgetting that teamwork was also being graded.

Boko Haram lures recruits with N5,000, says Zulum

Our Reporter Borno State Governor, Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum, yesterday said Boko Haram fighters lure recruits with as low as N5,000. The governor also reveals how his government sustained the fight against insurgents in the state in the last two years. He made the revelations in his statewide broadcast to commemorate this year’s Democracy Day (June 12, 2021) and his second anniversary in office, stating that “of all Nigeria’s 36 states, none is faced with the level of Borno’s security and by extension, social and economic challenges. According to him: “From day one, we were faced with an acute humanitarian crisis, particularly in northern and some parts of the central senatorial zones. As such, we made it a policy that as governor, I assume the role of chief humanitarian officer for different reasons. “On one hand, it was our duty to deliver help to our fellow citizens that were either internally displaced or taking refuge in neighbouring countries. “On the other hand, there was ...

Edo Museum of West African Art

The Benin Kingdom is known for its arts, many of which are scattered in museums around the world. The Edo State government’s decision to establish the museum of West African art will further the state’s image, writes Robert Egbe   On Friday, November 13, Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki announced a post-COVID-19 recovery plan to strengthen the public sector. But perhaps the most interesting component of his proposal was the announcement of a new partnership that seeks to return Edo State to its competitive advantage many centuries ago, and establish the Edo Museum of West African Art (EMOWAA). It is a fact that the Benin kingdom was one of the most powerful and creative kingdoms in Africa, with its art and craftmanship so globally acknowledged and renowned that European explorers marvelled at the level of sophistication of the art and culture emanating from this kingdom. Very few would argue with the fact that at some point in its history, this great kingdom was regarded as th...
