BET Awards: Yemi Alade Wants Africa Category Scrapped
Nigerian artiste, Yemi Alade, is not happy with the way African acts are treated at international awards, especially at BET Awards. The female music star, who lost the Best International Act; Africa category to Ghanaian artiste, Stonebwoy, has called for the scrapping of the category.
According to her, there is no genuine reason for holding the African category before the main event. She questioned the rationale behind it.
She said, "By the way, BET, Africa is not a country? It is wrong to nominate huge African stars and publicly try to humiliate Africa. Why on earth is the African category of the awards held hours before the main event?
"If African artists are not worthy in your sight, please by all means cancel, delete, omit the 'Best International Act (Africa) Category' out of this glorified award. This is wrong.”
