Guests were thrilled with drinks and sumptuous meals, courtesy of the Copyright Society of Nigeria ( COSON), ,Supported by Havana Beverages Limited, makers of D-Rider Bitters. and the Creative Industry Group (CIG)welfare department.

  There were also electrifying performances, that got guests glued to their seats clapping, and up on their feet dancing at the same time.
The Mc of the event was the talented humor merchant, KoffiThaGuru who mesmerized the crowd with his highlife skills, he also did not fail to use his anecdotes as usual, to treat issues bordering on education, suicide, and the current grueling situation of the country.

As he was ushered to the stage with a stand ovation and magniloquent adjectives by the MC KoffiThaGuru, that cracked everyone up. He also went ahead to take the concise citations of the legendary entertainment mogul who is undoubtedly one of the forerunners of the Nigerian Entertainment Industry, and whose professional relationship with music, started when he was only 18 years old, at the College of Immaculate Conception (CIC) Enugu. His first recorded works as an artist, was in 1976, an album titled _Super Sure_ . He released the album with the name Alex Tony Okoroji , under his own label , _Love Records_ .
