Lagos,
the city of excellence is bound to reverberate this evening as the big names in
the African music industry gather at the prestigious grand ballroom of Oriental
Hotel, Victoria Island, for the maiden edition of All Africa Music Awards, AFRIMA.
The
awards ceremony was initially scheduled for Sunday, November 9, but had to be
postponed owing to logistic reasons. During the week, the International
Committee of AFRIMA named superstar, 2face and Democratic Republic of Congo’s
hottest female broadcaster and music presenter, Madinga Sona Maria, as co-host
of the continental event.
Speaking
about the collaboration between the two popular hosts, Executive Producer,
AFRIMA, Mr Mike Dada, said, “The award ceremony is going to be explosive with
2Face and Madinga Sona Maria, two accomplished creative Africans, holding sway
and guiding our distinguished guests and nominees through the programme. We
promise to bring to Africa electrifying performances from our nominees and
invited guest performers. Then add this to the famous faces and glamour of the African
icons on the first-of-its-kind red carpet activity… It is going to be a
spectacular show!”
On
hosting 2014 AFRIMA, 2Face expressed his excitement when he said, “I am happy
to be part of this history-making event. I am delighted to host Africa, Africa
is the future. I welcome Africa and the world to AFRIMA here in the beautiful
city of Lagos, Nigeria. Let’s celebrate Africa together!“
