Wizkid shuts down the 02 Arena for his show. (see details)

Nigeria’s superstar musician icon, Ayo Balogun professionally known as Wizkid, shuts down the 02 Arena over the weekend or his “Afro Republik” music concert. The superstar musician raised the roof with his performances and that of other artist as he performed in the sold concert of over twenty thousand people (20,000) at the 02 Arena on Saturday the 26th of may.

Wizkid, after selling out the Royal Albert Hall in London England  last year, the superstar artist promised after the show that he will sell out the iconic 02 Arena this year, and with just barely seven months later, Wizkid lived up to his word and he sold out the 02 Arena as an estimated twenty thousand fans turned up for his concert on Saturday.

The superstar music icon has definitely inked down history with his record breaking sold out concert on Saturday as he continues to cement his name in the history books of Nigerian pop stars with his performance at the Afro Republik concert on Saturday.

The 02 Arena is located in London England and it was the first time a Nigerian pop artist sold it out days before the show.

The Afro Republik music concert was his first  major international performance this year and concert was preceded by performances from other music acts like Tiwa Savage, Tekno, Maleek Berry, MR Eazi, Yxng Bane who brought Kojo Funds on stage and  Not3s.

Tekno gave the fans a memorable night as he performed some of his hit songs like Pana, Diana, Duro and his hit song which he featured Wizkid, “Mama”. The “Alhaji” as he preferred to be called was not short of great things last night as he  produced an energetic performance to the delight of over twenty thousand people who turned up on the show.

African Diva, Tiwa Savage also gave an electrifying performance as she was brought out by Wizkid. The superstars both perform their hit song “Malo” which was released last year December. The queen diva also performed some of her hit songs like “Over” and other hit jams.

Mr Eazi performed his just released single hit song “London Town”. Mr Eazi performed the wavy jam alongside UK rapper, Giggs as they both produced an electrifying performance to the delight of over twenty thousand fans at the 02 Arena on Saturday.
Maleek Berry also took the stage as he performed some of his hit songs and also his latest single, “For Your Mind”.
Yxng Bane brought out Kojo Funds as they both performed together on stage.
But the night belonged to the star of the concert, Wizkid. The superstar was not short of great things on that night of the show as he brought the fans at the 02 Arena to a stand still.

Wizkid performed some of his hit songs from way back as he thrilled the fans at the sold out concert in London, England.
Wizkid is definitely bound for great things as he has been pulling the crowd in  his shows lately. He also have been given international recognition as he was invited to perform at the American biggest music concert “Coachchella” but couldn’t make it to the concert due to issues with his passport. But Wizkid has bounced back from that disappointment as he produced some hit jams like “Soco” ”Manya” and “Commando”. He also featured international  rappers like Drake, Ty Dollar Sign and other successful rappers in the music industry.

The certainly is an historic night not only for Wizkid but also for the Nigeria Music Industry and also for Africa.
