Just a week after the unveiling of the Top 12 contestants in the on-going Etisalat sponsored music reality TV show, Nigerian Idol Season 3, Immaculate Victoria and Vicci have been evicted during the first Gala Stage Result Show, bringing the competition down to 10 contestants.
Vicci, whose real name is Victor Chidiebere Ijomah, although sad said he is positive that he will ‘make it’ in the industry because according to him music has always been a part of his life. “All I just need is for someone to put me in the studio and I am so sure I will make it,” Vicci said. But the case was not the same for Oreoluwa Liyele a.k.a Immaculate Victoria, the New Jersey University undergraduate who was too shocked to speak let as tears ran freely down her cheeks.
Speaking after the show, Head, Events and Sponsorship, Etisalat Nigeria, Modupe Thani, commended Vicci and Immaculate Victoria for making it this far in the competition and urged them to take their eviction in good fate. “At this stage of the competition, eviction of any contestant does not make them any less good but it should be seen as an opportunity to develop their career. My advice to them is that they should go ahead and pursue their musical ambitions, notwithstanding”, she said.
An eviction party hosted for them at club DV8 in Victoria Island last Friday, February 22nd had only Vicci in attendance. Apparently Victoria was much too grieved to party with her former contestants.
