To further light up the event, season 1 winner Amarachi Uyanne, performed her break out song, Amarachi’s Dance at the finale.

Prior to the final event, the organisers had combed the nation for talents for months beginning with regional auditions in eight cities across the nation. This was followed by theatre auditions in Lagos from which the top 40 were selected to participate in the semi-finals in groups of eight over a period of five weeks with two best acts from each group going through to the finals.

The other finalists include Laff Doctor, Korede Odukale, Daniel ‘8 Strings’ Azuka, C.I.D Squad, D’ Flex, Elevators NG, Praize Puppets and D Naturals.

The Promo, which ran between January and February, was designed to reward the customers of Infinix phones for the Valentine season.

Prior to the promo, the company had issued a statement, urging consumers, who were interested to buy any of the Infinix smart phones and write a short love note to their partner.

It further stated that they would post the love note on the Infinix Facebook page or drop with an Infinix in-store rep while indicating the IMEI of the phone bought and their contact details. 

Customers with the highest likes on Facebook and the customer with the best love note submitted at the Infinix in-stores were selected.

After receiving the prize, Mr. Lanre Odukoya, who works with a national newspaper expressed his gratitude to the company for the opportunity to go on a second honeymoon in one month, having just returned from one.

He said: “This is very interesting to me. I got married just about one month ago. Though I didn’t have a quality time for my honeymoon because of some personal issues I had to attend to immediately after the wedding, I am excited about this wonderful opportunity to have a second shot at honeymoon in just one month after the wedding.”

Speaking on how he participated in the promo, Odukoya said “We wanted a good phone and we both went out shopping. After buying the Infinix phone, we were informed about the promo and decided to participate. My wife actually wrote the beautiful lines that won us the grand prize,” he added.

Speaking while presenting the prizes, Network Operations Manager, Infinix Mobility, Mr. Bayo Shobanjo, said the promo was an avenue to reward customers and rekindle the fire of love among couples.
