David Adeleke (aka Davido) is one of the top acts from around the world performing at the 2022 FIFA World Cup closing ceremony this evening at the 80,000-capacity Lusail Stadium in Qatar.
Davido who is just getting back his groove after mourning the death of his son Ifeanyi in a swimming pool few moments back, is one of the top acts lined up to thrill fans in a ceremony that the organisers have promised to be a "A Night to Remember".
Davido and Aisha will perform '(Hayya Hayya) Better Together' to the stadium audience and the global audience watching the ceremony live around the world. Other acts performing 'Arhbo' include Ozuna and Gims, and the full female lineup of 'Light the Sky' will be present, including Nora Fatehi, Balqees, Rahma Riad, and Manal.
Argentina and France will compete for the ultimate prize of the 2022 FIFA World Cup and the $42 million at stake after 63 matches and a month of thrilling action on the field.
"While the game begins at 6 p.m. here in Doha (4 p.m. Nigerian time), fans should plan to arrive by 4.30 p.m. to avoid missing the stunning closing ceremony, which promises to stay forever in the memories of the 88,000 spectators expected at Lusail Stadium," said FIFA in a statement last night.
"Following an opening ceremony that celebrated bridging the gaps and getting to know one another beyond our differences, the final ceremony will last 15 minutes and reference the world coming together for the 29 days of the tournament through poetry and music.
"A Night to Remember" will conclude with a mash-up of songs from the Official Soundtrack that marked memorable tournament moments."
