Nigerian Idols day out with Wizkid refreshed by Pepsi

The show is fast approaching its climax as the contestants sing out for the opportunity to realize their dream and be crowned winner of “Nigerian Idol Season 3”. Many have left the competition and more will yet be evicted, but before the eviction started, Pepsi, the associate sponsor of the Nigerian Idols, took all the finalist on an outing in Lagos Island with Pepsi music star Wizkid. For the Finalist it was a day to mingle with the Star, Wizkid.

The day started with a workout session at the prestigious Radisson Blue hotel gym.


From Raddison Blu the Nigerian Idol contestants were driven to a studio where they took some singing lessons from Wizkid to build their confidence. “Always believe in yourself and your ability,” Wizkid charged the contestants.

At Johnny Rockets, the new happening restaurant on 1411, Adetokunbo Ademola Street Victoria Island Lagos, the contestants and Wizkid rocked to exciting music and ate delicious food mixed with refreshing Pepsi.

“This is really great. The opportunity of mixing up with a superstar like Wizkid is a good booster to my quest at being really good in my musical career. I appreciate Pepsi’s contribution”, said Angus Okafor one of the contestants.

Mr. Norden Thurston, Head of Marketing Seven-Up Bottling Company Plc said that Pepsi has always been at the forefront of youth culture through music.
