Scheduled for Trenchard Hall, University of Ibadan, organisers are optimistic that it will help send the right message to Nigerians that “it is cool to vote and that it is our civic responsibility to register to vote and cast our votes for our chosen candidates.”
National Coordinator of the campaign, Fi’ammari Machar Zoaka, revealed that the concert isn’t going to be all about music. “Though we are employing the use of pop culture to deploy our message to Nigerians, it is important to note that the ideology behind this concert is a serious one.
For five decades, Nigeria has wandered in the wilderness of socio-political and economic deprivation. This is about the power of youth and our ability to redirect our nation towards national greatness. In between the performances, there will be short speeches by Kevin Pam, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, Chief Dele Momodu and Mr. Donald Duke.

“Also, we have a surprise unveiling for Nigerians as we are getting set to premiere “I Go Vote”, the first ever music collaboration of Nigerian artistes encouraging Nigerians to vote. We have some of Nigeria’s finest artistes on this song,” Fi’ammari informed.
