It was a night of fun and excitement as the second leg of the 2012 edition of the Amstel Malta Showtime held at the ultra-modern Best Western Hotel, Benin City, capital of Edo State.
The variety show, which comes from the stables of Nigerian Breweries PLC., makers of premium low-sugar malt drink, Amstel Malta, featured exciting performances from top Nigerian artistes including rave of the moment, Davido as well as ace rapper, Naeto C with the versatile Darey ‘Art’ Alade stepping in as anchor of the show.

The event, which was attended by students from tertiary institutions from within and outside Edo State, also featured comedy from fast rising comedian, Buchi, as well as electrifying dance routine from dance group, Corporate Dance World.

However, the night did not only belong to the superstars as some of the finalists selected at the auditions slugged it out and showed their best in singing, dancing and comedy competitions.

After pulsating performances from all the contestants, petite Emuoborsa Orogun as well as Victor Chidi Ebere and Daniel Chibueze Madu, were adjudged winners in the dance, comedy and singing competitions respectively.

Speaking after his performance, 10 over 10 crooner, Naeto C, commended Amstel Malta Showtime as the ‘most creative show in recent times’. “It has been a truly wonderful experience this evening and I want to say that Amstel Malta deserves a lot of commendation for putting up what I think is the most creative show in recent times.

“For me, the best part of the event is the opportunity to interact with these youngsters, most of who are not yet out of the university. Amstel Malta has given them the experience of their lives and I am happy that Amstel Malta is doing this for them,” he stated.

Speaking in the same vein, Davido stated that Amstel Malta Showtime is the biggest platform for students to display their talents. “From what I have seen here today, I really feel that Amstel Malta Showtime is the biggest platform for youths to display their talents. We have had exciting talents perform today who would otherwise not have had the opportunity to show what they have got. In my opinion, Amstel Malta deserves a lot of commendation for that,” he said.
