Gist of Omawumi’s concert

Omawumi’s lasso of concert went down last night and it was great to an extent!

Though the show started 1hours late and not many celebs showed up, yet Omawumi achieved what no female artiste in Nigeria has ever achieved – she successfully pulled off the SHOW.
  One of the highpoint of the show was Omawumi’s Ekwe performance with Onyeka Onwenu, everyone screamed for joy and gave a standing ovation when the Queen stepped on stage to join her daughter in the beautiful rendition.


And then the 4 sisters’ (Seyi Shay, Tiwa Savage, Waje, and omawonder herself) rendition of the ever green song ‘No Woman, No Cry’ and Destiny Child’s Amen by Destiny child was another beautiful performance – in fact Waje was damn so gooooooooood especially when she took the highest musical note…wow!
Other notable performances include the joint performance with Wizkid, Timaya and 2face – oh by the way, seeing 2face for the first time after his return from Dubai brought smiles to everyone’s face….Omawumi had to thank Annie Idibia for releasing her husband!

  She introduced her 86 year old grandpa
    According to Omawumi “he is the originator of the song, I only remixed it. He sang it 50 years ago and while I was growing up, mumsy used to sing it around the house….” and then she made the old man sing on stage. it was awesome
Uncle Singing his version of “Bottom Belle”
nd den Karen Igho showed up herself as usual….she was seen arguing with a waiter and then Cecil Hammond at some point over not being served drinks on her VVIP table – thought the case was resolved quickly but, Karen didn’t have to do that, she needs to work on her anger issues!
round off, big kudos to Omawumi for  the successful concert, and she even went as far as going to thank the guests with the regular tickets (humility) unlike some concerts where the guests with the regular invite are treated like nobodies #kokoconcert.
