2face Idibia is expanding his investments in hospitality, with the launch of his Rumors Nite Club in FESTAC Town, Lagos.
Said
to be worth over N250 Million, the club which opened its doors in the
New Year to fun seekers, is an extension of 2face’s club in GRA, Ikeja
under the same.
A source who spoke to NET said that the building of the club commenced sometime in late 2012 and was completed in December 2013.
Idibia’s
business partner Dotun Omotoye told NET ‘We are only test running the
place and waiting for the completion of the 1000 guest capacity event
center before we open officially in February’.
Omotoye confirmed to NET that over N250 million has been expended on the project.
Hypertek
Records and Entertainment C.E.O 2face Idibia had in 2012 acquired the
facility holding former Lacachette Nite Club situated in G.R.A, renaming
it ‘Rumors’.
He told Punch in an interview of his plan to go in
full throttle into night club business. ‘I am not only an artiste, I’m
also an entrepreneur. I want to make the night club a model like Jay-Z’s
Club 40/40. I want to have my clubs in major cities in Nigeria and one
in South Africa, Europe and the US.’
Since birthing in Festac
Town, Rumors has already become a hotspot for night crawlers especially
around the Festac Town vicinity. The club will officially be opened in
February with Victoria Island as its next target location.
