‘I wanted Eshun to win’
– ONYEKA ONWENU
ELEGANT Stallion and veteran musician, Onyeka Onwenu was one of the judges at the Glo X-Factor, the world biggest singing reality TV show. She had a chat with ENCOMIUM Weekly on the prospect of the contestants.
How did the show go?
I thank God for everything. It has been a wonderful experience. And for the contestants particularly the last three people, they have all won. And I’m very happy for them.
Did the best win tonight?
No, the best that I wanted was Eshun, clearly.
And now that DJ Switch eventually won, how does it feel?
Cool, I congratulate and wish her all the best. Anyone of them could have gone home with the cash. We got the best and good luck to them.
Do you see them going far in their career from here?
I see them taking the world. I wish them the best.
‘It was a beautiful show’ – M.I
Another Glo X-Factor judge, M.I also bared his mind on the successful conclusion of the show.
Congrats on the conclusion of Glo X-Factor?
Thank you.
How did it go?
As you already know, it was a beautiful show, well organized and appreciated by Africans.
How does it feel to see your girl, DJ Switch win?
She deserves it. And I’m happy for her. Like I said when she performed, she inspires us. That is why people scream when she performs.
What is your advice to Eshun and Vicky?
It is obvious that they are equally talented. Nothing should stop them from living their dreams. Both are wonderful artistes.
You sure enjoyed yourself during the show?
Yes, I did.
‘I had fun hosting Glo X-Factor’ – TOOLZ
RADIO presenter, Tolulope Oniru better known as Toolz, hosted the Glo X-Factor. ENCOMIUM Weekly asked the curvy OAP who also hosts The Juice on Ndani TV her experience at the show.
Your show is over?
Yeah, thank you.
Are you satisfied with the quality of Glo X-Factor?
Of course, it was world class. From judges to the host and contestants, it was awesome. We also had the best audience ever.
So, you sure had fun?
I did.
DJ Switch won all of N24m, would you have loved either Eshun or Vicky to have won?
The best contestant won, although they are all winners. You know it wasn’t easy to make it to the top three.
Now, you are done with Glo X-Factor, what next?
I will return to work.
‘I give everything back to God’ – MRS. VERONICA UDEH, winner’s mom
DJ Switch’s mother, Mrs. Veronica Udeh was visibly elated when her last child, Obianuju won the Glo X-Factor. She told us so in this interview…
How does it feel tonight, madam?
I just give praise to God. He brought my daughter this far. So, I will give Him all the glory. I have nothing much to say.
You had a premonition she would win N24 million?
I don’t know, God knew everything. I thank God for everything. And at this juncture, I give everything back to God, may God take control. As God has done this for me, let Him do it for another person. I pray that God will be with all of them.
Some parents used to oppose their children’s career, was it the same with you?
You know that if a child has a vision for something you have to allow him. So, I gave her all the support and encouragement she needed to succeed in her musical career.
