The Live Hub entertainment also mentioned the number of workers from all the security agencies contracted to work in and around the stadium, including those on standby offsite “to be called upon as and when needed, were a minimum of 304 security personnel.

The Live Hub rep said they provided Wizkid with an additional 15 security personnel, of which 4 acted as his personal 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.”
