First Lip Sync Battle Africa pits Denrele against Ebuka

The first episode of Lip Sync Battle Africa will pit weird Denrele Edun against his fellow television presenter, handsome Ebuka Obi-Uchendu. To premiere on April 30 on MTV Base, it is a battle that has been fiercely anticipated by lovers of the reality contest across Africa.
The dynamic duo is set to clash in a sizzling on-screen confrontation in front of millions of TV viewers across Africa, as the massive global TV hit finally makes its debut in Nigeria. After lip syncing (or miming) to two songs of their choice, just one of them will lift the Lip Sync Battle trophy and earn the biggest bragging rights on the planet as the inaugural Lip Sync Battle champion.
The eagerly-awaited African version of the global TV hit, Lip Sync Battle Africa, is hosted by South African actress and TV presenter, Pearl Thusi, alongside Nigerian musician, D’Banj.
Commenting on his appearance in the upcoming episode, Denrele boasted: “I am going to have a lot of fun on Lip Sync Battle Africa. This is precisely the sort of thing I like to do ordinarily and I will feel right at home on that stage! My fans can expect to see Denrele at his crazy, quirky best and I think that will make the show very watchable. Too bad for Ebuka that he is coming up against me!”
“Lip Sync Battle Africa is a bit left field for me, but I look forward to having fun on the programme. I promise everyone a fantastic time and my fans will get to see a side of me that they have never seen before, and possibly a side of me that even I have never seen before. I’m really excited it looks like a lot of fun already,” Ebuka said.
