Must-see moments at the Martell X Davido unveiling party
On Saturday, 12th June, Maison Martell was delighted to announce Davido, the singer-songwriter and record producer, as its new “Standout Swift” with an unveiling party at the upscale Wings Towers in Victoria Island, Lagos.
The office building in Ozumba Mbadiwe was transformed into a vibrant club scene with the finest bartenders and an open bar with an unending flow of cocktails and a delicious variety of sumptuous food to enjoy; from Chinese cuisines to the perfect mini burgers & small chops and the party favourite - jollof rice to savour guests taste buds.
Attendees enjoyed a variety of settings as different bold elements were incorporated into the interior decoration; from a wall of barrels at the entryway to a retro-sitting room photo booth where audacious and high energy, memories were captured.
The night saw performances from different artists including Davido himself. Dj Consequence, Dj Neptune, Peruzzi, Liya, Oxlade made a wonderful contribution to the entertainment of the evening.
The high energy attendees include Usman Kamaru, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Banky W, Toolz, Taymi B, Mike Edwards and other notable personalities.
