Nsikak Umoh a.k.a Bonic who made it to the top 30 at the on-going
Nigerian Idol arrived Uyo this evening from Lagos via Akwa Ibom
International Airport and will be hosted tomorrow, Friday for a ‘welcome back’
party.
The event tagged
“Celebrating Nsikak Umoh” will hold at popular celebrity hang out, 2nd
Baze from 7pm.
There will be a
red-carpet which will be graced by celebrities and other guests. Nsikak is
expected to perform while also using the opportunity to thank his fans for the
support they showed him while he was at the reality TV show.
The show is
packaged by top celebrity magazine – E101. Meanwhile, the magazine’s spokesman,
Asteroid Bassey has opined on why the event is necessary.
“Nsikak Umoh did
not win the top prize nor did he make it to the top 10 of the show but he has
carved a niche for himself by making it to the last 30. Nsikak is a star in the
making. Research has shown that top stars that make it in the music industry
are not products of reality TV shows, only few are. Even in yankee, top music
icons are not graduates of American Idol nor other music reality TV shows.
2face Idibia, D’banj, MI and plenty others are not products of reality TV
shows. The show was determined by votes. It is rather unfortunate that he
didn’t have enough votes to propel him to the zenith of the show but he has got
great talent. We know he has a great future ahead of him that is why
E101magazine is putting up this event to celebrate him”, said Asteroid who is
the Associate Editor of the magazine.
It could be
recalled that Nsikak was the only Akwa Ibom star who made it to the top 30 of
the show but failed to make it to top 10 neither was he called back for the
wild-card show by the judges which could have given him another opportunity to
make it to the last ten.
