D'banj seduces the crowd in true Kokomaster fashion.

Nigeria's D'banj to be the star attraction during the Afcon grand finale Africa's hottest emcee.

D'banj from Nigeria, will bring the house down at the grand finale of the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations on Sunday.

The 'Oliver Twist' and 'On Top of the World' star will be the closing ceremony's star attraction thanks in part to the collaboration of SuperSport and the Orange Africa Cup of Nations 2013 Local Organising Committee.

'On Top of the World' is the song behind SuperSport's theme piece for Afcon 2013.

Famed for the hit song 'Oliver Twist' which has earned him international acclaim and top BET and MTV Europe Awards, the 32-year old is arguably Africa's biggest musical export of the last decade.
