Latoya Aduke, a reputable dancer in her usual way lighted up the event with her energetic dancing skills alongside her band.

Speaking about the event, Latoya said, “Uncle Jimi is a legend. He can do no wrong with a mic and music. So many people were saying that they loved him since childhood and to be able to witness him live with their children is a blessing.

“Beautiful Nubia always gives his all to his friends. They sing along to music with positive vibes which makes them proud to be Africans. I enjoyed the whole experience. I look forward to the 15th edition of EMUFEST,” she added.
