Some musicians, like Terry G, and Zulezu among many others were reported to have performed at the event, and the actors danced to different songs to highlight their support for the APC candidate.

While speaking on behalf of members of the Kannywood industry in Nigeria, actor Ali Nuhu, said they were present to solicit the support of Nigerians for Tinubu and Shettima.

He appealed to those who have yet to collect their Permanent Voters Cards (PVC) to do so to enable them to vote for the APC presidential flagbearer.
