Fans of star artiste, ‘Tuface’ Idibia, celebrated him lavishly on Sunday at the inauguration of their official website.
The Tuface maniacs behind the project, coming under the banner, 2facemaniacs,planned everything behind the scene. They wanted to honour the music star in a way that no other Nigerian act had been honoured. The manner in which the plot was hatched and executed was reinforced by the choice of the venue – Scintilla Club, Lekki, which, no thanks to the new configuration of the Lekki Epe Expressway now, you could only access after a dramatic twisting and turning on Chevron Drive.
The event that was slated to start by 7pm did not start until about three hours later, leaving some people to become apprehensive that it might not eventually hold.
The fact is that the honouree was part of the Senator Ita Giwa’s Chidren of Bakassi festival that earlier held at the Eko Hotel and Suite, Lagos. Most important, however, is that when the treat tagged 2facemaniacs’ TheLegend 2face Idibia birthday party started, it became as if the day had just begun.
The event where the fans’ club’s official website was launched witnessed by a large crowd of fans and celebrity friends of the artiste, whose wife, Annie, was also present. Among such are Lagos-based comedian, Princess, African China, W4 and Black Solo.
It started with the launching of 2facemaniacs official anthem, produced and performed by a budding artiste and also a member of 2facemaniacs – MrVyne. The anthem was written by Haywizie, also a member of 2facemaniacs. The audience applauded the anthem and the talent in the voice that sang it.
During the inauguration of the website, one of the five administrators of 2facemaniacs, Ojuko Ridwan, put Tuface through his registration process, which was projected on a big screen for the viewing pleasure of the fans. He signed up his profile on www.2facemaniacs.com with the username “2facemaniacTheLegend”.
With that, says, the Grand Matron of the fans club, Mrs. Yejide Shobande, the site is now officially open to fans all over the world to register their profiles and become an official and authorised fan of ‘TheLegend 2face Idibia.’
While others who played major roles in the build up to the programme also got various rewards, a documentary on Tuface was also unveiled.
