Video Awards (NMVA), which held
weekend, at the MUSON Centre, Onikan,
Lagos, experienced a massive turn-out of
celebs from far and wide, even as some of
them hit the green carpet to share
memorable moments with fans.
Themed "Our Culture, Our Pride", this
year the event was co-anchored by
accomplished writer, actor, producer and
presenter Ireti Doyle and astute music
honcho and entrepreneur Dayo Adeneye.
Sponsored by the Lagos State
Government, the event witnessed
interesting performances. The Governor
represented by Special Adviser on
Tourism, Mrs. Ranti Alebiosu who opened
the event, lauded the governor for his
impact and good leadership. She also
praised the organisers of the occasion for
their hard work and doggedness in making
the event a reality. She assured the
organisers of more co existence and
support from the government.
Kid singer, Ozzy Bosco took to the stage
and thrilled the audience with a mind
blowing performance after which
comedian 'Oh My God' thrilled the crowd
with rib cracking jokes.
Dammy Krane also put up a stellar show
as he left the crowd dancing and twisting.
Despite the stunning and thrilling
performances, the absence of some rave
entertainers was felt. Tuface, Olamide,
Wizkid and Chidinma among others, did
not attend the occasion. There were
other performances by Waje, May D, Sean
Tizzle, Aboha, Ice Prince who performed
bare footed and the man of the day,
Flavour, who closed the program with his
award-winning track Ada Ada.
Flavour won Best Indigenous Concept,
Best Use of Costumes, Best Highlife Video
and Video of the Year, all coming from
Ada Ada.
The event which gave Life Achievement
Award to legendary Highlife musician Dr.
Victor Olaiya, had winners like Orezi for
Best Dance Hall and Raggae Video, and
Clarence Peters who clinched the Best
Video Director laurel.
Other winners for the night include
Amaray Oke Nbagi who won Best Gospel
Video, Olamide-Best Afro Hip Hop Video
among others.
Founded in 2007, organisers say the
NMVA is a platform that recognises,
praises and rewards the efforts of
Nigerian artistes/producers who had done
something remarkable to promote the
branding of Nigeria and Africa with their
musical talents.
