The winner of the second season of the voice Nigeria has been unveiled last night to be budding singer, Daniel Diongoli, popularly known as Idyl. The self-acclaimed ghetto youth who says he was “raised in the streets by the streets,” also affirms that grace brought him this far.
The 22-year-old Bayelsa-born singer who was coached by popular soul singer, Timi Dakolo, defeated Ebube with whom he was in the top 2 before delivering a stunning performance of John Legend’s this time to win the 2017 edition of the competition. They both wept on each other’s necks as he was announced the winner.
Other participants who had been dropped as the competition entered critical stages also joined Idyl on the stage to share the historical, joyous moment with him. The winner earns a recording contract with Universal Music Group, an SUV car worth N7m and a trip to Abu Dhabi. In this year’s edition, which is the Season 2 of The Voice Nigeria, four performers made it to the grand finale, but Idly took home the dream prizes.
