Tiwa Savage,2 baba shut down Benin City for “I Go Dye Standing” show

It was billed to be a great show and against all odds it lived up to its billing. In Spite of the heavy downpour of rain that marred the Easter Sunday celebration in Benin City, Edo State, the I Go Dye Standing show tagged “More than a Legend” went on in all its glory, pomp and pageantry before a sold out audience.

I Go Dye set the tone for the night, making his entrance like an English Knight in Shining armour with 50 royal reel brass men heralding what could be a hero’s welcome to the blaring of multitudes of trumpets. It was a red carpet reception that gave the crowd an inkling of what to come.

2Baba and Tiwa Savage were unleashed. The duo took to stage at different times to serenade with their magical musical repertoire which set the already charged atmosphere on fire. Hits after hits, the duo took the crowd on a musical journey, bringing back memories and scintillating sensibilities to a delightful crescendo.

While I Go Dye led the comedy onslaught that left many spreadeagled on their backs and clutching their tummies, Okey Bakassi, Maleke and others proved to be soothing placebos that left the audience truly entertained and sedated.
