The trio became the fourth act to be evicted from the show after the other two groups, SmoothBoiz and DNA Twins, as well as Ankara Boi all got eliminated from the show whose winner will receive N24 million cash prize from show sponsors, Globacom, and a recording contract with Sony Music.
As show host Toolz received from a representative of Alexander Forbes the envelope containing the names of the two acts with the lowest votes, the question on the minds of the audience was, "Who will it be tonight?"
Before announcing the results, Toolz directed her first question to MI: "You're the only judge who still has all his mentees in the competition; are they making you proud?" MI responded, "All the contestants have done well; they always do me proud. At this level of the show, I think, they've all proved themselves."
She asked Reggie, "Symphony put up a beautiful performance last week; did they impress you?" He responded, "Symphony did a good job last week. They put up a fighting chance and showed us that they're real fighters. They've come up as big surprises. The underdog has risen and now, all eyes are on them.
When Toolz finally announced the results, it was Symphony and Vicky who were the bottom two. "You guys are here for the third time; are you surprised?" she asked the Symphony group. "Not really," they responded. "We are really getting better and we had a great performance last week. Well, we're here because we're fighters; we'll keep on fighting.
The two acts proceeded to sing for the judges to decide who goes home. "I vote for Vicky. We can't afford to lose her," Onyeka said after her performance. "Who would you like to save?" Toolz asked Reggie. "Like in all things I do, I put Jah first. They're both really good; they both stole the show. However, I have to look out for my chosen. I pick Symphony," he said.
"MI," Toolz said poignantly, "You've been put in an awkward position yet again. Who would you save?"
"Both of you gave great performances last week," MI said to the contestants. "I feel Symphony gave the best performance last week. However, I always tell myself, 'Judge, be honest. Who has been the best and most interesting?' Unfortunately, Symphony, your X-Factor journey ends here." he finished off. Thus bowed out the Ghanaian group who had previously survived two close evictions.
