Nigerian Idol Season 9 concluded today in an exciting finale. This season, marked by raw emotions, incredible talent, and show-stopping performances, started with ten contestants, after weeks of fierce competition, only three remained: Lammy, Chioma, and Chima.
The grand finale was an intense event. It began with an inspiring rendition of John Legend’s “Glory” by all ten contestants, followed by special appearances from past winners of Nigerian Idol, Progress and Victory Gbakara. As anticipation built, the audience was treated to guest performances by Chike and Simi before the top three took centre stage for their final performances. With bated breath, everyone awaited the announcement. Host, Ik Osakidouwa finally declared the winner – Chima!
Omawumi, one of the judges, noted how Chima competed primarily against himself – showcasing his growth, while Busola Tejumola, the executive head (content and channels) at MultiChoice, commended his resilience throughout the competition.
Chima’s prize package is nothing short of impressive. He walks away with 30 million naira in cash, a brand new SUV, a music deal with a music video, and a DSTV Explora with a one-year premium subscription.
