3 Awards in one night: Wizkid wins ‘Artiste of the Year’ at AFRIMA
By Ediale Kingsley
Wizkid’s year is coming to a glittering end with a number of international awards.
In just one night, Nigerian pop star, Wizkid won three major international awards.
The Nigerian star was honoured with trophies for ‘Best African Act’ and ‘Worldwide Act’ at the 2016 MTV EMAs that held in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Then back home in Nigeria on the same night, Wizkid won the ‘Artiste of Year’ award at the third edition of AFRIMA (All Africa Music Awards) that held in Lagos.
These award add to the Starboy’s winning streak that started two weeks ago with three wins at the 2016 MTV MAMAs in South Africa, where he won ‘Artiste of the Year’, ‘Best Male Act’ and ‘Best Collaboration out of Africa’.
There’s also his ‘Best African Act’ award at the 2016 MOBO awards in London which he got a few days ago.
With this, pundits continue to tip Wizkid for a Grammy come 2017 given his pretty impressive run in 2016 and his much talked about collabo with Drake on the song ‘One Dance’.
