The capital city of Nigeria, Abuja, recently came
alive as the Amstel Malta sponsored Tuface and Friends Campus Connect gig,
which has been touring major universities made a historic stop in the city. In
a night filled with exciting music display ably championed by ‘African Queen’
crooner, Innocent UjahIdibia, fondly called ‘Tuface’, students and a cross
section of Abuja dwellers thronged the popular Tiffany Gardens in Gwagwalada to
have a great time out with ‘Tubaba’ and Friends.
The ecstatic and electric atmosphere coupled with an
all-star retinue of entertainers billed to perform during the Campus Connect
gig with Tuface and Friends elicited pure feelings of joy and smiles from fans
