After Nigeria hosted the All Africa Music Awards (AFRIMA) last year, the organisers have announced the Republic of Ghana as the host country for this year’s edition.
The 5th AFRIMA host country unveiling was conducted at the African Union Headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
According to the coordinators, this became necessary following the receipt of a letter signed by Ghana’s Honourable Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture, Honourable Catherine Afeku, to host AFRIMA.
