The
organisers of the Nigeria Music Video Awards (NMVA) have announced the winners
of the 2015 edition of the awards. Recall the heavily publicized annual
ceremony was called off barely 78 hours to the D-day.
The
coordinators had cited logistics challenge for the decision. They said ‘it was
a tough call but it was inevitable’. The orgnaisers also said ‘the need to
overhaul the concept, with a view to making it more purposeful also overwhelmed
it’. The event was however rescheduled for a later date.
However
given reasons on why they are releasing the winners for 2015 edition despite
the fact that the ceremony was not held, the Coordinator of the award, Mr.
Cally Ikpe said, “all other stages of the 9th edition of the NMVA was observed,
from the call for entry, the nomination and to the online voting among other
ancillary programs.
It
is imperative that the public is let in to what the result of the process is.
Though belated, but we are pleased to announce the winners in the various
categories for the 9th edition of the annual Nigeria Music Video Awards. In a
short while, we will also let you know what the plans for the 2016 edition
are”.
