“The new system is designed to host DJ contests online with amazing voting, registration and rating system while accommodating more DJs.

“Fill the long lasted vacuum “Online active DJ forum” for Nigerian DJs and also serve as a medium for Nigerians to contact and hire DJ across the country when they have events,” he said.

Mr Cokco explained that the new platform will allow for DJs to showcase their talents and tell their stories through the online platforms.

Announcing the reward for the winners, Cokco said that the first prize would attract a Pioneer DJ DDJ-SB3 DJ Controller and N300,000 N300,000; second price a Laptop and N100,000 while the third price would attract a 3-Channel Scratch Mixer and N50,000.
