From musicians to actors and those behind the scene of movie productions, it was a day that was set aside to honour those who had contributed in no little means to the development of the Yoruba culture through music, videos and other areas of entertainment.
Anchored by popular Ibadan-based comedian, Remote, the event, which was organised by Ademola Moreklue of Maya Awards, put forward a spectacle of the culture and tradition to the amusement of the audience, who seemed to be enjoying every moment of their stay while they listened to the jokes of Remote.
There were many highpoints at the event, but the moment people had been waiting for would soon came when Juju singer, Femi Solar, whose profile has continued to rise to the envy of his colleagues, emerged the best Juju Artiste of the Year even as he revealed that he never saw it coming.
Solar, who is described by his fans as a protege of Yinka Ayefele was lost of words as he stepped forward to receive his award. The Adegbodu twins also claimed the Best Gospel Artiste of the Year award, even as Gospel Artiste of the Year (Female) award was given to Bunmi Akinaanu (Omije Ojumi).
Popular comic actor, Wale Akorede, otherwise known as Okunnu, was rewarded for his hard work and consistency, as he went home with the Best Comic Actor of the Year award just as Femi Adebayo won Best Actor of the Year. Jaiye Kuti emerged the Best Actress of the Year. Nkechi Sunday won Best Actor in a TV series.
