After a successful Dangote-sponsored Children’s Carnival yesterday (26th, December), today marked a new dawn for revellers, fun seekers, tourists and visitors as they mill out to catch a glimpse of “Africa’s biggest street party”. Like in previous editions, there was a colourful display by each carnival band, trying to outdo its competitors. The bands that competed for the grand prize are: Bayside, Freedom Band, Masta Blasta, Passion4 and Seagulls. This later saw Masta Blasta as the winner of this year’s edition, with Passion4 and Freedom Band coming second and third position respectively!
