The world’s first-ever BET hip-hop Best International Flow winner, Sarkodie after the VGMA, has bagged the most prestigious award at the MTN 4Sytetv Music Video Awards 2019 (MVAs).

Following his massive win at the VGMAs, taking home the ‘Artiste of the decade’ award, he has again won the most esteemed honor, the Lifetime Achievement Award at the recent MVAs.

Celebrating the 10th anniversary of the awards scheme, the MVAs sought to award the artiste with most achievements within the 10-year period. Sarkodie took home that highest honor in addition to two other awards on the night.

The rapper won the Best Male Video, Best hip-hop video, and the Lifetime Achievement Award at the MVAs, which took place last Saturday.

#MVAs19: Shatta Wale and Sarkodie win big, all that happened plus the list of winners.

Ghana’s premier music video awards scheme, MTN 4sytetv Music Video Awards 2019 was touted to be a very remarkable night in Ghana’s music history. Considering the fact that, this year’s edition marked its tenth (10th) anniversary, the night was anticipated to be nothing less than magnificently HISTORIC.

Moreover, billing three of Ghana’s finest headliners Sarkodie, Shatta Wale, and Stonebwoy, the night was also projected to achieve what the 20th VGMAs could not realize with the three acts.

Meanwhile, the night did not fall short of any of those expectations as it was studded with several breathtaking performances. Sarkodie set the tone for the night with his pace-setting terrific opening performance. Other performers who immensely thrilled patrons included Stonebwoy, Shatta Wale, R2bees, Medikal, Kwaw Kese and the likes.

Interestingly, Shatta Wale dedicated (literally gave) his Most popular song award to Stonebwoy. Prior to that, Stonebwoy gave Shatta Wale an emotional hug during his performance, when Shatta Wale was spotted upstanding enjoying Stonebwoy’s performance. These two gestures they say amplifies the fact that their beef exists not anymore, as Shatta Wale voiced “the beef is officially over”.

However, the big winners for the night were Shatta Wale and Sarkodie, bagging 5 and 3 awards respectively.

Here are all the award winners

At the summit

Now, during the summit held at the Accra International Conference Center, Jack Ma made some very interesting statements in his welcome address. The co-founder of Alibaba Group disclosed that, his visit to Ghana was the most important one of all his trips to Africa.

“This is my fourth trip to Africa and this is the most important trip for me because I have realised that through this trip, I can really do something real for Africa, African entrepreneurs and African young people…” Jack Ma made clear.

He further continued to say that, though the government will be solely responsible for the African Continental Free Trade Agreement scheduled to kickstart in July, business leaders have a major role to play in it.

“Most people see Africa today, they say there is no e-commerce, no logistics, no payment. To me it is so similar… Africa today is like China 15-20 years ago. Because we had nothing. That is the opportunity.” He added.

Meanwhile, Jack Ma’s flagship entrepreneur program in Africa, The Africa Netpreneur Prize Initiative is great news for the continent at it is geared towards supporting African entrepreneurs. Under the initiative, 10 entrepreneurs will be awarded a shared $1M grant over the next 10 years.

There was this one that was very intriguing because there was the wooden spatula that is used to stir banku that we popularly call ‘Bankuta’…. and I said well passable; that can be used as a so you can hit the guy at wherever you’re going to attack with the bankuta and he may fall unconscious,” he joked.

Meanwhile five persons are standing trial over an alleged plot to destabilize the country. Veteran journalist Kweku Baako has revealed that there is video and audio evidence of the arrested persons scheming to overthrow the current government.
