All is now set for Season 8 of Nigeria’s most prestigious reality TV singing competition, Nigerian Idol. The show will premiere on April 23, 2023, as D’banj, Simi, and Obi Asika also return to preside as judges for the season alongside beloved host IK Osakioduwa.
This follows the brilliant success of the past edition that saw Progress Chukwuyem emerge as the winner and walk away with 100 million Naira worth of gifts.
The auditions and theatre week will air from April 23 till May 21, so fans can follow the journey of the final live-show contestants. The live shows will begin on May 28 and end on July 16, when a new Nigerian Idol will emerge. “This year, we are thrilled to have our entire panel of judges back – D’Banj, Simi, Obi Asika. They will return to steer the course of affairs. We look forward to a wide array of music and song choices across genres and spectacular performances that together deliver a fantastic show.”
It’s always a battle, but it’s also a pleasure. We are blessed with incredible talents. It’s one of the things that make Nigerians special. These amazing talents come through every year, and I can assure you that there are special people this season.”
