Music star, Davido outshined other Nigerian artistes by winning the ‘Best African Artiste of the Year’ at the 15th edition of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) which held on Saturday.
Winning the award, the “Skelewu” crooner beat Nigerian counterparts Psquare, KCEE, Wizkid, Flavour and South African duo Mafikizolo.
