It has been a total frenzy
from the moment the explosive Yudala song by Iyanya dropped in the Nigerian
music industry. To celebrate the launch of
the Yudala website on the 31 of
August 2015, the Social team decided to go on a quest to find the Yudala
champion with the ‘Yu Sing Yu Dabce’ Competition, which required participants
to send in a creative 15-second video in tune with the Yudala song, using the
hashtags ‘#YUDance’ or ‘#YUSing’.
Little did they realize what
they were getting themselves into as hundreds of videos poured in on the Yudala
Instagram page.

The contest was designed to
avail Nigerians the opportunity to showcase their singing and dancing skills
with a chance to win the grand prize of a free iPhone6 and a luxurious date
with the ‘Kukere’ master himself, Iyanya. That is not all, consolation prizes
of HP Slate Voice Tablet 6 were also up for grabs for the runner ups.
After a fierce competition,
the winner, by the name Deborah was picked by Iyanya based on her creativity
alongside 3 other runner ups who won the HP tablets. The winner had a
sumptuous lunch date with Iyanya at the exotic Four Points by
Sheraton.
We also gathered some
of our favorite videos that got us either laughing or 'goshing' about the
dance.
Even mums from other parts
of the world quickly caught in on the frenzy with several other videos coming
from across the globe.
