On the other hand, Zadok was the MVP of the night.
Zadok, who was the fifth contestant to make it to the Top 9, stole the show and got a standing ovation from the judges with his rendition of Timi Dakola’s song, ‘Wish Me Well.’
As a fan stated, he ate the song and literarily left no crumbs.
In a related development, David Operah, Debby and Faith secured a spot in the Top 9.
Banty was also fortunate to clinch the last spot with a performance that left audience drooling with her amazing rendition of ‘Lean on Me’ by Bill Withers
