Indeed, there could have been no better Yuletide treat for the students and members of the university community as they savoured every moment of the show, dancing and laughing heartily to the music and jokes oozing from the entertainment repertoire of the artistes on parade at the night of funtainment.

The duo of ‘Katapot’ exponent, Reekado Banks, and ‘Discover Mungo Park’ proponent, Korede Bello, both of the Marvin Records label and Globacom Brand Ambassadors, were in their best elements as they sang hit tracks to the delight of the crowd.

Reekado Banks, who was the first big act of the night after an equally thrilling performances by some up and coming student artistes from the university, began the show with his ‘Looku Looku’ tract and moved on to other hit tracks like ‘Chop am’, ‘Sugar Baby’; ‘Problem’; and ‘Katapot’. He ended with the award-winning ‘Oluwa ni’ song.

Taking the show to the zenith, Korede Bello stormed the stage with his ‘Mungo Park’ track and the hall erupted in wild excitement. While the loud ovation was still on, the Marvin Records protégée dropped the ‘One and Only’, ‘Adaobi’ ‘Do it like that’,  and ‘Relative’ tracks in quick succession, and wrapped it up with ‘Godwin’.

Besides the Marvin duo, the budding artistes among the students such as Dimky, Roger-Lino, Lee Ray, Ok David and Young Prince proved their mettle, and demonstrated that they were indeed popular among the students. However, Lambasixx was the cynosure of all eyes among the student artistes as he ‘killed’ the show with his lyrics.

DJ XGee, who manned the jukebox, supplied hot vibes, while 2CanTalk, an Enugu-based comedian who anchored the show, was loaded for the night with contemporary jokes which depicted the lifestyle of an average student on campus.
