The Soundcity MVP awards went down last night and lots of Nigerian stars turned up for the event.
Davido, Olamide, Tiwa Savage, Maleek Berry, Sakordie and more African stars were all present at the awards show.
But one celebrity was noticeably absent last night, and it’s none other than Starboy Wizkid.
Wizkid, who was nominated for 6 awards, won one, The Digital Artiste of the year, but wasn’t available to receive it himself. This is because he was in London for Ycee’s Show.
Ycee had his first headline show, the “Juice Concert” in London and Wizkid was among the headlining acts.
The show featured supporting acts like Eugy, Sona, Bella, MsBanks & Flosha. There were also surprise appearances from top acts; Wizkid, Falz & comedian Basketmouth.
