    God bless you Mo Adeniran for giving us something to smile about and be proud of, especially at this rather gloomy era of our national life. I wish you higher heights and greater exploits.

    This is why it is good to live outside Nigeria if one wants his talent to be revealed to the world, this guy will never win if he was in Nigeria for one of the talent shows. Politics and other things will be in place to determine winner In Nigeria. Mo Adeniran, I wish you success as you commence new journey
