At the Asaba show which was held at the expansive hall of the Orchid Hotel & Suites, located at the Government Reservation Area of the city, residents of the state capital and the neighbouring towns trooped out in thousands to enjoy the Easter holiday in a very special way. Also anchored by the ever resourceful Basketmouth, the show brought out the creativity, ingenuity and resourcefulness of the array of Nigerian artists who were on hand to entertain the people free of charge. Comedians, from the weird Akpororo, to Bovi, Buchi and I Go Dye, collaborated with musicians such as Uncle O, Djinee, Whizz Boy and African Rapper Number One, MI, to make the event, which had in attendance the ace actor and Delta State Commissioner for Arts, Culture and Tourism, Richard Mofe-Damijo, a memorable night.
