How Orezi shut down Delta state

By Abdulkadir Rafiat

     The much-awaited Orezi Experience Concert finally went down at Ozoro Stadium last Sunday and from what was witnessed at the event, it attracted more than 10,000 people from within and outside the state. It was one show that many people would not forget in a hurry.

    From the rich list of artistes to the choice of venue and arrangement, the concert, in its first edition, gave the excited crowd more than they had bargained for. The crowd responded and the artistes were in their best elements, dishing out songs that were chorused by the crowd.

    For more than six weeks, talks about Orezi bringing his first show to his hometown shaped discussions in every sense of it. Apart from the glitz and glamour that ushered in the people, there was indeed more to see and talk about in one event that had all the trappings of a world-class concert.

      Though the event started a little behind schedule, the ‘red carpet’ was great, with notable celebrities and politicians, many of whom were members of the Delta State House of Assembly. While all that was going on, the stars were getting ready to get on stage as the guests waited in anticipation.

     Considering the massive turnout, the artistes on display, sound quality and crowd control, the show would go down as one of the most successful in recent times. Word for word, in risen crescendo, the crowd was receptive as they danced to the tunes of Solidstar, Ycee, Yung6ix, Erigga, Skiibii, Efe, Soft and Kcee.
