For Wizkid and his team, they were provided an additional 15 security personnel, of which 4 acted as his bodyguards while 11 stayed with his team.

“All international standard health and safety measures were in place. Our health and safety package was provided by KDB Safety Solutions, which included 5 ambulances stationed all around the stadium, 3 medical tents to attend to easily resolvable medical matters for both talent and all attendees, and 1 fire tender with fire personnel. Live Hub also partnered with the Ridge Hospital (5mins away) and 4 other hospitals, all within 15 mins of the stadium to receive any patients from the stadium, if any more serious medical issues arose.”
