Tonight, music stars from the continent will be in Dakar, Senegal for the eighth edition of the All Africa Music Awards . Tagged the Teranga edition, AFRIMA will be rewarding creative talents in the music field in both the continental and regional awards.
Burna Boy, Kizz Daniel and Fireboy DML are in the race for the Best Male Artiste in West Africa, Song of the Year and Artiste of the Year. Tiwa Savage is also contesting in the Artiste of the Year while Burna Boy is nominated in the Album of the Year category. Meanwhile, Nigeria’s music act Brymo who is also a nominee is facing a nullification threat following his anti-Igbo remarks. A petition was raised last week to nullify the artiste’s nomination as a lesson for belittling an Igbo Presidency, particularly his shots at the Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi.
“His actions spark disunity and hatred in attention there. Preventing him from winning the All Africa Music Award would send a strong message to him, and people like him, that he can’t get away with such blatant ethnic bigotry,” the petition reads.
