It was indeed an unforgettable night of great music, riveting and jaw-dropping performances; not to mention that the show was hosted by Nigeria’s favourite – none other than Ebuka Obi Uchendu.
From the sound to the lighting, the stage to the dance choreographies, there was no doubt that this will be one of our most favourite award shows this year; it’s still too early to tell.
Davido won the highest number of awards on the night, smiling home three awards: the African Artist of the year, Song of the Year and Video of the Year.
