The energy was electric. The dreams? Real. The stakes? Sky-high.

Salary4Life Nigeria’s most anticipated game show powered by Whispa Konnect, wrapped up a gripping 2-day audition event on Friday, July 4th, and Saturday, July 5th, 2025, in Oregun, Ikeja. The event drew hundreds of shortlisted contestants from a staggering 10,000+ entries received nationwide, all hungry for a shot at financial transformation.

Each episode will see one finalist win a jaw-dropping ₦100,000,000 (One Hundred Million Naira). Set to premiere in October 2025, the 13-episode debut season will air on both digital and terrestrial TV platforms.

But the Lagos auditions were more than just a hunt for contestants, they were a celebration of ambition, grit, and everyday heroes.

Participants ranged from artisans to techies, entrepreneurs to civil servants, each with a burning desire to change their story. The atmosphere buzzed with interactive games, challenging trials, live interviews, and unforgettable moments of passion, wit, and sheer will.

Giveaways like branded umbrellas, water bottles, keyholders, notebooks, and even cash transfers kept the vibe festive and rewarding.

In attendance were high-profile guests, including Oritsetinmeyin Igbene, Chairman of Liberty Group (the parent company of Whispa Konnect), the show’s charismatic host IK Osakioduwa, and Lolu Taiwo, Acting MD of Whispa Konnect.

“This is not just a game show—it’s a movement. It’s about ambition, hustle, and transformation,”
