The second season of the Kicked off last week in Abuja. The auditions moved to
Markurdi on Sunday (18th August) and were concluded Monday (19th August).
Here are photos from the auditions in Abuja
alongside a diary the DCGTH team have kept so far.
DAY ONE
Bright and early, despite the rainy and cold
weather, a lot of people, young and old, turned out to begin a journey in
search of greatness, taking those first steps in the nationwide search for the
Destiny Child who will stand above the multitude and against all odds will
arise to proclaim the gospel of Jesus…. that one who attains the right to be
crowned the destiny child.
ABUJA AUDITION DAY 2
The expectation from the judges rose as survivors
of the day 1 screening where expected to be on top of their game with strong
delivery, vocal quality and versatility. The YES and NO were the fears of all
contestants as each contestant was expected to get 3 YES(s) to qualify to the
next stage.
The anxiety was intensified for those who
could go on to the third round, the sadness and pain got worse for those who
this stage would mark the end of their journey in this first edition. With
green cards giving way to white tags and fierce competition ahead, the judges
had streamlined the contestants from 75 to 50 wonderful gospel voices that will
ultimately compete for the final two (2) spots, to represent the Abuja zone in
the national competition.
The process lasted for hours and finally the top 5
emerged. After minutes of brainstorming, the judges selected the final two (2).
It was an all-male affair as 2 men were finally selected . Congratulations to
the selected contestants in Abuja.
