HEADIES 2022: U.S. Mission hosts Nigerian entertainers, award nominees in Lagos

On Thursday, the U.S. Mission Nigeria hosted a reception to honour the 15th Annual Headies Music Awards, holding for the first time in Atlanta later this year.

Delivering remarks at the event, the United States Ambassador to Nigeria, Mary Beth Leonard applauded the growing ties between the two countries in the creative industry.

This year’s Headies Awards will highlight the Nigerian music industry’s creativity and growing global reach.”Because Atlanta is home to prominent hip-hop, R&B artistes and record labels, the award organisers said the city is crucial for hosting the awards.
