Yemi Alade’s team gave music lovers several exciting moments on the latest episode of The Voice Nigeria, which aired over the weekend.

The leading international competition has finally entered the knockout stages, with an all-new episode scheduled to air this coming weekend on Airtel TV.

The previous episode of the competition marked the end of the blind auditions, with each coach selecting 6 talents to be on their team for the next stage, the Knockouts, where only three members from each team will make it to the battle rounds.
