Ghana has once again witnessed another night of celebrating Ghanaian music, honouring music legends and unifying Africa through music at the 20th edition of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards, a night to award the creative content of Ghanaian musicians.Â
All roads led to the Accra International Conference Centre to witness the most hardworking and influential artistes of the year under review getting rewarded.
The event, as usual, began with the glam from the red carpet with 3 FM’s Giovanni Caleb and actress Sika Osei as the host which saw celebrities showing off what they wore and talking about what they expect for the night.
This year’s event was hosted by Ace-broadcaster, Kwame Sefa Kayi, aka the Chairman General and Berla Mundi from EIB Network.
