Wizkid and Davido Win Big In MOBO Awards 2017: Full List of Winners
Davido was cut out of most award ceremonies last year because of his battles with Sony Music, but the IF singer relocated to Nigeria in January and has been winning ever since!
Last night, at the 2017 MOBO Awards held at the First Direct Arena in Leeds, the Nigerian singer beat all other African artistes nominated for Best Africa Act to emerge the winner, and this heartwarming news comes just days after he won the MTV EMA Best Africa Act.
But the major win for the night was for Wizkid, who beat heavyweights like Jay-Z, Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Travis Scott, and many others, to emerge winner of the Best International Act! The Ojuelegba singer has long smashed the borders and not longer competes with Africa-based artists, and this warms the hearts of his fans.
Other stars who shone last night include, Stormzy, J Hus and Craig David.
Check out the full list of winners.
