before a massively filled auditorium of the “who’s who in the corporate and
entertainment world, revealing the fact that she is still getting used to her
new status, as a public figure.

Sid and Tiwa Savage both of Mavin records, Timi Dakolo, Bovi (comedian),
foreign acts like JT Taylor of “kool and the Gang”, Midnight Star, and SOS,
with songs that made the audience abandon their cosy chairs for the dance
floor.
Several boxing bouts
were also staged to round up the Corporate Elite Night. Dare Ayowale who
was initially knocked down by Waheed Usman still went on to win the fight
against his taller opponent through a knockout as Weheed’s corner threw in the
towel to save their boxer from countless dangerous jabs, hooks and uppercuts
delivered by Ayowale. Isaac Eko (Ivy), who is 8th on line, for World
Boxing Organisation belt, knocked down his Algerian opponent, in round two.
