Francis, Kingdom, Akunna made it to the top 3 on Sunday after their Comfort was evicted.
Comfort, who was among the top four finalists had to leave the show after she secured the lowest number of votes, leaving 3 others to battle for the prize.
Comfort was expected to have exited the competition during the theatre week stage following series of errors but she improved her vocals with time.
The top three contestants will battle it out on the Nigerian Idol stage on Sunday, hoping to be crowned the winner of the competition.
They yesterday’s performance left the judges dazzled as they were confused to know who performed better than others.
The judges were dazzled with Kingdom Kroseide, who performed ‘Iyawo mi’ by Timi Dakolo.
While Francis Atela’s performance of ‘Pray for me’ by Dare Art Alade earned him praises from guest judge (Cobhams), just as Akunna’s Johnny by Yemi Alade earned her some commendations.
Cobhams praised Kingdom for embarking on his exceptional versatility during his performance.
Supporting Cobhams views, Seyi Shay commended Kingdom for his captivating stage performance and urged him to put out his heart even if he has a good instrument.
Cobhams told Akunna that her tone is beautiful but she has to voice it out.
According to him, she has what it takes to be a singer but she has to sing out and bring her potential more.
Seyi Shay felt that Akunna did not bring her ‘A game’ to this week’s performance.
However, Francis impressed the judges and showcased his continuous growth in the competition. He was told that he is 100 percent believable but he needs to work on his strength.
As the rush for the ultimate prize continues on Sunday, the battle for who will be crowned the winner seems to be between Kingdom and Francis.
