MTN customers were granted access to watch the concert for free, contributing to a record-breaking turnout of 718,368 music fans across the world.

The innovative experience featured Grammy Award-winning Nigerian artist, Ayodeji ‘Wizkid’ Balogun on the London tour of his hit album, Made in Lagos, where he performed to more than 20,000 fans at the iconic O2 Arena.
Adia Sowho, Chief Marketing Officer, MTN Nigeria, expressed her excitement about the partnership with uduX, reiterating MTN’s commitment to promoting cultural moments. “In harnessing our continent’s boundless opportunities and promoting its art, we at MTN will continue to partner with like minds in various industries to connect Nigeria with the world.
