The season 5 winner made the allegation during an interview on the latest episode of the ‘Honest Bunch Podcast’ with Nedu Wazobia.

NaijaCrawl reports that in 2015, K-Peace was announced the winner of the Etisalat-sponsored Nigerian Idol Season 5.

Speaking 10 years after his win, the singer, in a trending video on social media, stated that the organizers failed to fulfill prizes announced to the public.

Expressing his frustration and disappointment, he said, “I came outside of the Nigerian Idol platform with zero naira in my account.”

Speaking in pidgin English, he continued, “As Nigerian Idol winner, I go waka all through Lagos, go for interviews without food for Belle despite winning N7.5 million.

“They announced that I had won N7.5 million. When I asked about the prize, they said they are still branding the car. What they announced on national TV was, I won N7.5 million with a brand new car, and I’m supposed to have a two-week trip to Dubai. I go through hell after winning the show.”

Nigerian Idol is a music talent reality show.
