Nigeria’s Ehizojia Okoeguale last night emerged winner of the second edition of the MTV Base VJ Search.
Ehiz,
25, was announced as winner at the live recording of the grand finale
held at Club One-Eleven, Victoria Island, Lagos after an exciting grand
finale which included judges On-Air-Personality Toolz, star actress
Funke Akindele, MTV’s Tim Horwood and R&B singer Banky W.
“I’m really speechless. I wish I know what to say right now,” Ehiz said a few minutes after he was adjudged the winner.
There
were musical performances from Burna Boy, Ice Prince and Iyanya, after
which the three finalists – Ada Ogunkeya, Kemi Owatemi and Ehiz were
called on stage.
Tension mounted as guests held their breath as
the winner was about to be announced since all the finalists were
equally talented with individual skills.
But when Ehiz got the judges’ nod the whole audience was in agreement with his choice.
Ehiz,
a graduate of Lead City University, Ibadan, where he studied Computer
Electronics, is already living his dream as he told P.M.NEWS
Entertainment Cafe that he’s destined and have been dreaming of
presenting shows on a continental entertainment channel.
His
parents were also present at the live recording and were very excited
when their boy was announced the winner, especially his mom who informed
and picked the nomination form for Ehiz.
“Back in school, I
hosted parties, award nights and other gigs. There was a time I was
hosting and I had to call on stage 2face Idibia. That’s one of my
greatest experiences. MTV is a platform that has set standards…If I win,
I’ll be making the brand really proud by working hard and focusing on
my skills and the first thing I’ll do is take my mom out for dinner
because I love her so much; she was the one that informed me about the
MTV VJ search,” Ehiz told P.M.NEWS days before the finale.
Ehiz walked away with a N10m contract with MTV and a brand new KIA Cerato car.
The second edition of the MTV Base VJ Search has been nothing but exciting since it kicked off with auditions in December 2012.
The
finale was hosted by MTV Base VJ Search inaugural winner Charity
‘C-Von’ Okpala and her South African counterpart, Nomuzi Mabena.
