The musical fiesta which also featured American-Naija  female soul singer of the Sexy Nana fame, Janelia and an upcoming artiste, Fearless, pulled a massive crowd of fun-lovers from Ijebu Ode and environs. DJ Top was on the juke-box while Gbenga Adeyinka compered the occasion, embellishing it with his signature jokes.

The show was held on the expansive grounds of Equity Hotel and Resort on Erunwon Road in Ijebu Ode.

Globacom which has sponsored the post-Eid el Kabir festival for eight consecutive years said the concert meant to spice up its sponsorship of the festival, was programmed to add music, dance and comedy to the camaraderie atmosphere engendered by the festival.

“The musical fiesta is the icing on the cake of the sponsorship as it brings both the young and the young at heart together  to hobnob, dance and be merry”, Mr Yomi Ogunbamowo, National Head of Business Support, Globacom said at the fiesta.

Another regular participant of the Glo musical shows , Olabisi Oretuga, who is a Sales Executive with a multinational company in Lagos noted that Globacom had displayed its commitment to the welfare of Nigerians by not only making its products and services available, but by also providing refreshing entertainment  for the benefit of fun-loving  Nigerian youths.
