Sunday, October 11th Azi Nyako Youth Centre was packed with about 700 people who came to see their favorite gospel artists perform and donate to the cause of helping blind people see again.
The Give Sight Charity Concert opened with Wakfwen giving the welcome address.
Ezra Jinang performed the songs that people in
Dave Azi, well-respected gospel reggae singer played some of his best songs and had people on their feet dancing.
Ernest Dades kept the reggae rhythm going with his medley of songs.

Jeremiah Gyang sang his best songs including “Na Ba Ka Zuciyata!” (I Give You My Heart).
Pam Monday sang the best of Hausa praise songs and had people dancing in front of the stage.
Finally a group of new artists singing in the Berom language, The Five Loaves, took the stage and got everyone doing their best tribal dance steps in the front.
As night was falling, Beth gave the closing word of thanks, Musa Goyol gave the final prayer and the M.C., Plateau Radio Television D.J. Clement Selbong, popularly called Steary J, gave the closing words of the Give Sight Charity Concert as the crowd started to disperse.
