Nigerian Children got talent. Wow, i think the show is all about children. Amarachi, good dancer, however, i think Godwin is unique, it’s not easy to find such talent. So, if the show was really about Nigerians got talent, then i don’t think a dancer should win because all the kids in Nigeria today knows how to dance. The judges, i think did not do a good job.

Yeah u guyz are right, and A̶̲̥̅♏ so surprise nigerians never reason with us. I really love the kid and may God continue to bless her. But I THINK she got sympathy vote because she Wα̲̅ڪ contesting with people who are not in her calibre which secure her the grand prize and which is not suppose †☺ b so. Every nowadays children can dance extremly, so it whould b called Naija got children’s talent show instead. Technically this is not right, moreso she’s not yet an adult. By this, how do we encourage the children?

If it is really nigerian dat voted, they got it all wrong. Godwin should have won it cuz he is extra-ordinary. And chuka and boniface should have made it to the top three. FACT.

So sad to see us going backward all the time. I have watched America got talent and it is far different from ours. I wonder how they judges came out with those four finalists. We should try and copy well next time…look for the real talents on the streets. Well, congrats to Amarachi

Quite simply put? deservedly Deserved! And for me, the other contestant that deserved the final 3 was the Violin boy; and another that should have made the final 3 but didn't, was the guy that did so many things with his mouth and mic. I guess his age counted against him.
