Just before the final performance. Simi popped on our screens with a special Father’s Day message to her husband Adekunle Gold.

Finally, it was time to decide who would become the last Contestant to make it to the Top 6, a showdown between Chisom and Quest.

After a few minutes of tension, Quest was announced as the Contestant to make it to Top 6. This ultimately meant Chisom was out of the competition. When asked about how he felt, Chisom said he would do more with his music and that the world should expect more from him going forward.
The last to make it to Top 6, Quest performed ‘Alabaster Box’ by CeeCee Winans. Obi commended her vocal agility as well as Simi who also advised her to enunciate her words clearly.

The night ended with Eliminated Contestant Chisom giving a smooth rendition of ‘I Wanna Know’ by Joe.
