Micro-blogging site twitter was agog with news of the long walk which has been tagged with many different hilarious names. Most have called it the walk of life, others likened it to NYSC's endurance trek. Some tweets read thus:
Koko Concert Begins With A Woeful Bang....
The much anticipated Koko Concert happened last night and didn't turn out quite as expected. What happened to be probably the biggest fail of the whole affair was the fact that attendees had to park their vehicles and trek a distance. According to sources, the koko concert which held at the beach side at Eko Atlantic was about an hour's trek from where the vehicles were parked.
“@forakin: #ThatAwkwardMoment when you #KokoTrek to #KokoConcert as a #KokoVVIP and discover you are a #KokoMugu.”
@toluogunlesi: Meeting! Meeting!! Meeting!!! Koko Concert Survivors Association of Nigeria (KOCOSAN)
@JKlem: Just one question...did Dammy Krane say «ko le re body» at kokoconcert yesterday?
@ALIBABAGCFR: #kokoConcert AFTER THE TREK... SOMEONE ACTUALLY MISTOOK @DENRENLE_EDUN FOR WOLE SOYINKA... HIS HAIR WAS ALL GRAY
@omojuwa: I am proud of D'banj. Not satisfied with making the biggest hit out of Africa in years, he got Nigerians to do a walk of love #KokoConcert
Was this the initial plan? We know not. One thing we know is that other than the trek, the koko Concert was a blast an the attendees had fun. Once again, the koko master, D'banj has made tongues wag. There were performances from Tinie Tempah, Big Sean, Burna Boy, Iyanya, Ice Prince, Dammy Krane and a host of others. For those who missed the show, here are a few videos:
