Nigerian Artistes dominate at the Channel O Music Video Awards

Out of an impressive 13 nominations, Nigeria artistes secured six awards; Pop duo Psquare won the ‘Most Gifted Group/Duo’ award for their collaboration with May D on the hit single ‘Chop my money,’ while another collaboration from Highlife singer Flavour and Tiwa Savage on ‘Oyi’ remix won the ‘Most Gifted R&B Music Video of the year’ award.

D’banj walked away with the ‘Most Gifted Male Video of the Year’ award. Last year, the G.O.O.D Music act who was to be honoured with a ‘Special Recognition’ award missed the show.


Other Nigerian winners include Chocolate City ambassadors BrymO, who won the ‘Most Gifted Pop’ for his hit song ‘Ara‘ and the award show’s co-host Ice Prince, who won the award for ‘Most Gifted Hip Hop Video of the Year.’ Meanwhile, Davido walked away with the ‘Most Gifted New Comer of the Year’ award, beating Kenya’s Camp Mulla and Ghana’s E.L, among others.

 The show, hosted by Nigerian rapper Ice Prince and South African model Bonang Matheba, took place at the Walter Sisulu Square in Kliptown, Soweto.
