Saturday night at the prestigious Expo Center, Eko Hotel and Suites, Lagos, there was a lot of glamour and glitterati as artistes, producers, fans and corporate bodies converged for the 2012 edition of the Headies Awards, a brain child of young business mogul and entertainment impresario, Mr. Ayo Animashaun. And yours sincerely was there.
Saturday's show truly lived up to the Headies renowned billing as one of the most prestigious shows in Nigeria and indeed Africa. It was preceded the previous day by a pre-award night show titled the Veterans' Night during which notable veterans in the Nigerian music industry were honoured.
The highest number of awards for the night went (as expected) to the internationally acclaimed twins, PSQUARE, who won two awards with another one going to their brother and producer Jude okoye for directing the video of their hit song featuring Akon- Chop my money.
