Barely two weeks after announcing the return of the fan favourite reality singing competition show; Nigerian Idol, MultiChoice Nigeria has revealed that the reward for the eventual winner will be a recording contract with a leading record label and N50 million worth of prizes which include a cash prize and a brand-new car.
