We bring you the photo highlights:

Back stage:

Just before they hit the stage, super star Funke Akindele played referee with veteran artiste, Lagabja, while Diamond Platnumz honoured a fan with a photo. The Psquare brothers on the other hand, geared up to shut it down. They did.

Comedians Basketmouth and Bovi took a quick selfie just before Lagbaja left the back stage.
