An Experience at The experience 2012

With a heart filled with gratitude, I’m thankful for the Experience 2012. Over 10 hours of Praise, Worship and Prayers, it is the largest crowd pulling event of the year and the biggest gospel musical concert in the world (I would suppose).

 

 Sammy Okposu and Chosen Treasure opened in worship and the praise party began. Chevelle Franklyn sang Nigerian gospel as though she was from here. She is an awesome singer. I bless God for her life.

 Israel Houghton gave me the performance of my life and what can I say of Don Moen’s worship session, magnificent! Micah Stampley- Omg! Micah can pitch. Sad he didn’t get enough time.

As usual, the venue for this year’s concert was the Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) where it’s been running for six years now except for last year’s that was held at the expo hall of Eko Hotel.

Featured international acts were Chevelle Franklin, Deitrick Haddon, Israel Houghton, Fred Hammond, Don Moen, Micah Stampley and Soweto Spiritual Singers while Sammy Okposu, Chosen Treasure, Mike Aremu, Timi Dakolo and Wale Adenuga represented Nigerian artistes.

Akpororo made the crowd laugh with rib cracking jokes before Deitrick Haddon brought heaven’s glory down. I have always wanted to be under Deitrick’s ministration and as God will have it, eXperience 2012 brought him.

Les I forget… Michelle Williams (formally of Destiny Child) sang the Nigerian national anthem and beautifully too. A lady by name Tosin, came in with crouches but amid the praise, God healed her. Tosin’s healing was just one of the many miracles God did on the night.

On security concerns, the organizers placed the security as its highest priority. I noticed the presence of easily identifiable armed security men and patrol men in and around the venue and parking areas. There were also loads of security flood lights that illuminated the venue and designated parking area.

Organization for me was topnotch. And in order for attendees to be comfortable with regards convenience, there were clean and easily accessible mobile flush toilet around the concert venue.

Food and drinks were also available for purchase at different stands in the venue and all night long

The passion and joy I received made the experience 2012 a truly great event. Worship ever felt any better than this. If for any reason you couldn’t attend this year’s own. Make sure you don’t miss next year’s. I’ve already booked my sit. See you at the experience 2013.
