Stonebwoy keeps on making Ghana proud, he scored the award for Best Dancehall Artiste…impressive!  However, Diamond Plantinumz needs to be giving us some of that juice of success because the Tanzanian entertainer was the big winner of the night as he won three awards for Best Male East Africa, AFRIMMA video of the year and Artiste of the year respectively

By the way Nigerian Artiste Emma Nyra was the red carpet host of the night as she turned things up with her sexy self.
