Media personality, Tacha Akide, has slammed the organizers of the Headies Award for hosting the event in the United States back-to-back.
While speaking in a viral video, the Big Brother Naija star said it was understandable that the Headies took place in the United States last year as Afrobeats was beginning to gain momentum in the country.
She however stated that it is disrespectful that the award ceremony still took place in the United States this year.
She drew a comparison with the BET awards and stated that it would never take place anywhere in Africa. She also talked about how African artists were given award plaques at backstages in the past, at the BET.
She ended the video by saying it is “colonial mentality” to think that the United States is the best place to host the event.
