The Queen of Afrohouse,
Niniola, will be bringing down the roof this weekend at the
The Human Radio Concert in Lagos.
The concert is scheduled for Friday, 9th of November at Landmark Centre, Victoria Island, and will feature Reminisce, Aramide, Mayorkun, Mr Real, Terry Apala, Slimcase, Immaculate, Johnny Drille, Teni, Oladips, Godwin Strings, GreyC, Tyson Noir and Soti. DJ Dips and DJ Crowd Kontroller will man the disk jockey consoles.
The concert is named after Niniola’s secondary school nickname; she had her own “request show”, in which she would sing whatever song was requested to the utter delight and amazement of her schoolmates.
