AY Live, the Comedy and Music Concert from the stable of AY’s Corporate World Entertainment has come, gone and left a visible foot print on the sand of Entertainment Time as Nigeria’s most attended Concert when it held Lagos still on Easter Sunday, out-selling (for the 3rd Consecutive time) the 6,000-Capacity Eko Convention Hall of Eko Hotels and Suites, Lagos on Easter Sunday 2013.
“It’s another big plus for us,” AY said after the crowd-thronging concert, “and we can only say thank you to OHTV, our International Production Partners and to everybody (organizations and individuals) that supported the Event. We cannot but appreciate Lagosians for trooping out en-masse to see the Show. And above all, we thank the life-giving Lord for helping us fix a date, making the day a good day for a Show, and for granting us life, long enough to see that day and beyond.”
AY Live on Easter Sunday recorded a First: It was the first time Nigeria’s song singing super actress, Tonto Dike staged a Live Performance. And she wowed the crowd with her energetic performance: dancing, smiling and getting good ovation as she performed.
Alibaba, Julius Agwu, Gordons, Gandoki, and AY himself were at their performance best on the Night. They dished out mature, intelligent, and memorable side-splitting jabs. And representing the New Testament of Comedy in Nigeria, Funny Bone, Akpororo, Elenu, Ajebo, Mc Shakara, Acapella, and scores of other young and very hilarious comedians added more fun to the Night.

The Crown Troupe of Africa were excellent on the Night, while Explicit Dance Group, Kaffy’s Dance Group were on the bill and on stage to provide engaging choreographed dance.
Juliet Ibrahim, the fabulous sexy actress from Ghana, represented Gollywood in a Parody Comedy Skit that told the story of how Kim Kardashian was in Lagos for Darey’s Love Like a Movie concert. And the witty lines in the Skit doubled the crowd up!
Juliet was joined by Tinsel’s Chris Attoh (also from Ghana) and both of them alongside AY and Elenu staged a comedy play where Chris playing Boniface was the husband whose impotency worried his wife, Magi (played by Juliet). They both invited false prophet AY and his interpreter, Elenu to help out with the situation. Prophet AY had to physically transfer power to Magi to make her produce babies.

After the Show (the Red Carpet of which Denrele hosted) Freeze, the host of the Main Show, said: “This is the Best Show of the Year!”
