The biggest names in Ghanaian and African music gathered at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) for the 20th edition of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.
From the stylishness and glamour on the red carpet to wonderful performances, the unexpected event that brought the program to stand still for a moment had celebrities and attendees running for protection.
The night saw several artists and producers receive honors for their work over the past year. However, two of the keenly contested categories, the ‘Artiste of the Year’ and the ‘Song of the Year” were withheld by the organizers to later be announced at a press conference.
