In our eyes, this project is a success- patrons are pleased with the unique experience and I just want to commend Burna Boy, Pop Caan, Lila Ike and the other supporting acts for sharing their talent through these stunning performances. We thoroughly enjoyed every second, ” he said.

Event promoter, Andrew Ellis, also lauded Hennessy’s execution at the event.


“Hennessy is our premium high-end spirit brand and certainly we are not able to execute everywhere but when we do we show up and we show out- the Burna show execution was nothing less than that. Persons were happy with the décor and layout of the Ultra VIP. The setting definitely matched the occasion in terms of the finishes and final touches. Also we had some high-end pours in both VVIP and Ultra-VIP and persons were happy about that. It was a good compliment to the show in terms of the ladies coming out and taking their own moment at the 360 booth- we’re extremely happy about their execution,” he said.
