It’s groovy December with Bet9ja Detty Fest

It’s groovy December with Bet9ja Detty Fest

Barely few weeks after the successful hosting of Big Brother Naija 2019, which was tagged ‘Pepper Them’, Bet9ja, the headline sponsor of the biggest Nigerian reality television show, is out to entertain even more this festive season.

Bet9ja, Nigeria’s foremost sports gaming company, is offering unique excitement to Nigerians this season with Detty Fest December, a music and entertainment fiesta, which features four  concerts headlined by four top Nigerian music acts.

From Teni the Entertainer, Wizkid, Davido to Naira Marley, Detty Fest promises an enthralling outing for lovers of music and the general public this Christmas season.

Already, Teni the Entertainer thrilled the audience and won more fans during the first concert of Detty Fest, which was tagged ‘Teni Live Concert: The Billionaire Experience’.

At the concert, which held on December 16, 2019 at Eko Convention Center, Eko Hotel & Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos, Teni offered mind-blowing performances, and delighted fans with hit songs such as; “Billionaire”, “For your sake”, “Uyo Meyo” amid other sensational songs and performances from guest artistes.

With her great personality, style of music, magical performances, she offered unforgettable experience to the audience, while further breaking the norm with female artistes in Nigeria with her unconventional style.

If you missed Teni’s concert, Bet9ja is offering you another and even more fun at Wizkid’s concert. On December 26, 2019, Wizkid, the Nigerian music export, will thrill fans and music lovers with his concert tagged ‘StarBoy Fest Lagos’ at Eko Atlantic, Victoria Island Lagos.

The musician, Ayo Balogun, who stages as Wizkid is promising an elevated excitement, which he tagged ‘Boxing Day Madness’.

On December 27th, the next day, Davido, another youthful ace musician, will continue from where Wizkid stopped to offer more excitement to the audience.

Tagged ‘City of Davido’, the music concert will hold at Ocean View Grounds in Eko Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos and promises to be the best show of the season and year.

The last concert will feature Naira Marley.  On December 30, 2019, Naira Marley will be staging a massive concert tagged, ‘Marlian Fest’, at the Eko Convention Centre, Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island in Lagos.

In preparation for the concert, which is probably the last for the year, the youthful singer, who is currently one of the most-talked-about music artistes in the Nigerian music scene, took to his social media to announce and invite his fans to the concert. He assured that he is going to blow up Lagos with his explosive show to wrap up the Detty Fest December 2019.

The choice of Naira Marley to close the show is probably due to his growing influence and large fan base, which the musician has amassed in recent time.

However, speaking on the rationale for sponsoring the music concerts, Bet9ja noted that the Detty Fest December is one of the platforms it uses to amplify its MORE THAN A BET campaign. The campaign is planned to show Bet9ja’s impact on how it is touching and changing lives positively everyday.

Speaking further on the sponsorship, Ayo Ojuroye, managing director, Bet9ja, explained that, “Our partnership with the music acts such as Teni, Wizkid, Davido and Naira Marley to make this December a boom for the entertainment industry, is another way of giving back to the society where we operate, and we are changing lives everyday through corporate social responsibility initiatives”.

In line with its believe that music is a key component of entertainment, Ojuroye said that Bet9ja believes that impact of entertainment on society is positive, hence the support for the great acts to make the festive holiday a true time of refreshing for everyone.

“People should set apart one day in a week for leisure. In this way they can make their mind strong and active. Besides, entertainment also increases our depth of knowledge. People can learn and achieve work life balance and have up-to-date knowledge on various topics. This is a state of being whole both mentally and physically to achieve and live a healthy lifestyle”, he said.

While encouraging Nigerians to visit the four venues of the concerts for quality unwinding this festive season, he assured that, “We will continue to seek avenues in the entertainment industry, culture and other aspects to empower Nigerians”.
