[@oladimejitaiwo7513]

Me that woke my wife up. Gave her the full gist before playing it again for her to enjoy the experience. They said it, they didn't. It's the way Niyola ran to hug them. This show is truly an experience. There is power in healthy competition. I have learnt a lot this night. Where you will get to, you will get there... I remember how Gideon was cheering every of his colleagues up during the knockout. There is evil and death in unhealthy competition and comparison. Nice one coaches and the guys. We can't wait for Team Naeto C

[@chukwuemekahenry3298]

I literally can't count how many times I kept playing back....in Niyola's voice; "I CAN'T.." That was so emotional 😭 This was the best so far!!!!

[@damilolaaderoju8176]

Niyola was soooo underrated from the beginning. She knows what she's doing she set a record.

[@blaircazie9621]

I sure agree. Right from seeing the pairing I asked why person (coach Niyola) go wicked herself like this... The pairing was tight, e no easy at all.

[@modesolaojumu2654]

I kept saying, she was an underdog and I'm glad she's showing what she's made of

[@literacywith-mrslight]

She conveniently deleted all the ladies on her team. It seemed like a great move, but all the team members with personalities were eliminated. It's an absolutely foolish move. (From a business perspective and promoting her team). She should have paired them and let voters choose. Now she has two strong members with similar personalities competing in a competition! Waste of votes!!!

I learnt two things from Gideon and Manuel’s performance and the decision-making process. A) Be the best in whatever you do, by so, rules would be broken for you constantly to help you prosper;B) participate in healthy competition. Help your competitors be the best. If everyone does so, we would live in a better community.❤❤

You might say I am being sentimental because of my love for Niyola, but I will gladly say she's got the vibes this season of The Voice. Her choice of songs and coaching ability is just a topnotch. She is great and hey, respect to the other coaches as well. Never a dull moment. Wishing the saved and the “off for nominations” all the best, you are a winner already ❤

[@olaoluwakenneth8833]

Well, to me, that wasn’t a good decision and it shouldn’t have been approved by the organizers. She should have picked Manuel and let the voters bring back Gideon. Definitely everyone is gonna vote for Gideon as he’s the best and this also give other contestants a chance of belonging even if they aren’t voted for and the rules would have been followed.

You guys need to stop celebrating blatant disregard of rules. Even in little things like a TV show. The fact is Nigeria is where it is because of things like that. What about other contestants that according to the rules could've been voted on by the fans? No consideration whatsoever for them right?

[@nkaymoney]

@@itswisdomnic it's only fair to allow contestants who have a chance to b saved by the voting public to remain eligible for it. It's d rule.....For example, a talent like Esther doesn't get to come back? Really? Or even Love..Come on let's face d facts. Was Gabriel/Manuel's performance great? YES IT WAS...But this is d voice, we need to see d very best of the performances. It's why it's a competition. Niyola should av not paired them against each other. The whole talk Abt it not being fair isn't an excuse.

[@thrivefamilynetwork]

​@Chidozie Okoye I get what you mean really. But I guess she couldn't risk it especially as some Nigerians tend to be sentimental in their voting. It was her call at the end of the day and if she thought there was someone else on the voting list that was deserving she would have let the voting take its cause. She did what she had to do. Still I get your point cos if I where the one left hanging or I knew someone that was, I would be upset. But the guys where just too good oh like they where invited to wrap up the ceremony

[@edaiyin3401]

I loved all the ladies performances. Love was awesome, but her opponent offers something extra special. Sade has improved greatly, she was going toe to toe with Pere but I think at a point, her confidence dipped when she started second guessing herself as Pere kept stepping on the gas. But you Sade are a sweet lady and a gentle soul. And Esther did her best too. Not sure she was feeling the song so she seemed to be singing from her head and not her heart. Would have loved to see more of her. Great work ladies. I will miss you. And please don't be too disappointed the audience didn't get to vote to save one of you, and don't mind the seemingly dismissive way Brother 9ice especially and the other judges ruled you ladies out. If there is any consolation and comfort, it is that the decision was taken based on an amazing and historic quality performance by those two singing giants.

I love love love the way the coaches are attached to their talent, Niyola genuinely appreciates great talent. Thank you for going the extra mile for Manuel and Gideon, can't still stop my tears after watching more than once, and those two guys have discovered a marvelous friendship ❤❤❤

[@simplygorgeouscreations7540]

This is the best battle ever on the voice Nigeria. I literally cried when Niyola was asked to make a choice between Manuel and Gideon. For a moment, it looked like a crime to choose. Like, both of them were goooood! Manuel said they just might make history and they sure did! Well done guys! Well done Coach Niyola 🎉.

[@mercygiftagabriel6584]

They literally made history, God was really on their side. The best was saved for the last Man!

Manuel and Gideon set the bar so high with such a classic performance. The kind of performance that left an indelible imprint in #TheVoiceNigeria history. Thanks, guys, for bringing your ‘A’ game to the battles and the previous stages. You pushed your coach to make an unimaginable decision. Well done!

[@paulakujuobi1932]

Gidion and Manuel made history on The Voice as the first pair of competitors who would both battle and retain their spots without any elimination: History makers indeed. Good competitive spirit from all the talents tonight. Finally Niyola was brave to have refused to make a decision on Gidion an Manuel. I never knew such provision ever existed before now. And perhaps it could be that this is only happening because they were obviously and overwhelmingy excellent. Goodnight everyone

[@ayodelekemisola4669]

I love Pere and shade’s performance it gave me chills they did great…Emanuel and Gideon gave a wow performance and I learnt from this show tonight that there is always a room for two we can all shine at the same time can’t get over it and coach Niyola made the right decision, history was made in the voice Nigeria .

[@nicholasehi8775]

I love the Decision Niyola took, keeping Gideon and Manuel.. Beautiful and Amazing singers.. I was literally excited by that decision. She is a wise coach.. Gideon and Manuel are just like brothers, bringing out the best out of themselves, and working for each other makes them unique and awesome. I love them both and am happy they are still in the competition

[@justtalkswithsoty]

Beyond music, I think Gideon is an amazing person, watch his journey , how he cheers everyone up, he is not scared to let another person shine. Love him literally. Wish him the best

[@Iamgloria.o]

Gideon VS Manuel is what you call a battle. Love everything about that performance. Coaches need to stop pairing their favorite (strong link) VS their least favorite (weak link). They already have a winner before they even perform.

[@dripcnice]

True

[@theyovelaexperience]

Fact💯

[@osemudiamwenvictor816]

True... It would have been better off if the other coaches had cards with numbers and voted to keep the better singer. Because when the stakes are high it all comes down to sentiments. We're humans after all

[@istilldeytalk]

Very true. They pick their winner from the rehearsals not the stage

[@kosidivine1803]

You really hit the fact, always pairing the weak and the strong vocals, at the end of the performance, you already know who the coach would pick… it’s so bad!

[@inyamaemmanuel9613]

All hail Queen Niyola!!! She stood by her kings.🙌🙌

[@passionglobalnetwork7113]

I can just imagine Gideon and Manuel at the final stage coz these guys came ready and their ability to interpret any song is top-notch... At this point, I am proud to be a Nigerian.

[@phantom8172]

Woah!, What an episode... I really couldn't pick from Manuel and Gideon too and I understand why niyola couldn't. She would have been devastated or would have eventually gave up her position to pick if it came to that(it was that tough). People that are saying it's unfair to the others yeah I get them but it's a competition and the rest of them didn't bring their A game. If they did they would have been the ones in the situation. In a competition you don't settle for option B, you have to fight hard for the first slot and both Manuel and Gideon did that making two of them go through. Great episode, niyola's a great and beautiful coach.

[@BlessedToyin]

To think that Niyola was underrated at the beginning😊 Thank you Niyola for giving us a show...I love your team😍 For chemistry, Sade and Pere did it for me tonight For harmony and perfection, Gideon and Manuel are the best. I don't think Niyola's decision to keep them both was bad because it would be too risky to leave their fate in the hands of an audience who love them but won't vote. We have seen from past seasons, how good singers don't get voted back. I feel for the ladies, all three are too good and I hope the organisers can come up with a surprise😥

I thought I was the only one that felt that performance Meanwhile I think the comments on the Shade's performance was a bit harsh. Her riffs and adlib were spot on and complementary. If she had responded to every of Pere's moves it would have been noisy, probably killed the love in the song. This is my first time of noticing her and sadly she is off the show.
