After months of rigorous musical performances, Progress has emerged the Season 7 winner of the Nigerian Idol.
Progress emerged winner after collating the highest votes from fans in a hugely contested battle with second place winner, Zadok, dividing 45 million votes among themselves.
However, it was Progress who became the man of the night, winning N30 million Naira, an SUV, among other branded prizes.
The finale also saw the judges, Obi Asika, D Banj and Simi, thrill the audience in various performances. Season Six winner, Kingdom and music producer-turned singer, Pheelz, gave enthralling performances.
Progress joins an elite class of singers from reality singing competitions and will hold rank for the next 12 months until the next season.
