Odafe Atogun enchantingly narrated Taduno's Song that depicted the life of Nigerians under the rule of a treacherous dictator, who would do anything to stay powerful and become wealthier! This is a story of rebellion against a military regime via Taduno’s music. This epic tale is about Taduno’s dilemma whether to follow his heart or mind! Should he “go against his conscience and praise the tyrant to save his love” or should he “let his love suffer for the sake of his beloved country and Nigerians”!
