MultiChoice Nigeria has announced the new season of the Nigeria Idol season eight editions which will be starting with auditioning of interested candidates.
The online auditions for the eighth season of Nigerian Idol which started on Saturday, January 14 will close on Saturday, January 28, 2022.
Announcing the new season, Executive Head of Content and West Africa Channels at MultiChoice Nigeria, Busola Tejumola, said: “MultiChoice has committed to spotlighting young talent in Nigeria in different sectors. As with past seasons of the music talent competition, we remain committed to promoting and giving young, promising Nigerian musicians a platform to shine and actualise their dreams. Season eight promises to be bigger and more entertaining than other seasons. Last year, after a fierce battle between Progress and Zadok, the former emerged as the winner, and we are looking for more talents who will pack the heat the way our contestants in season seven did. So, if you believe you have what it takes to be the next Nigerian Idol, send your auditions to the Africa Magic website before January 28.”
Last season, 12 brilliant contestants made it to the live shows out of over 40,000 entries, and it is now time for even more Nigerian youths to get a chance in the spotlight. All interested candidates must ensure they have a valid means of identification.
The Nigerian Idol season eight winner will walk away with an N30 million cash prize, among other rewards. All interested applicants should send their 30-second video to www.africamagic.tv.
Nigerian Idol season 8 will air on DStv and GOtv in April 2022 and is proudly sponsored by BIGI Drinks and Tecno.
