And this win marks the second time in a roll that the Grammy nominated singer and songwriter has won BET’s Best International Act awards.
To accept his win, below was what the Nigerian singer said as his acceptance speech.
“I’ll like to use this opportunity to say that sometime around 1835, there was a mission to turn Africa into a dominated nation. Now is the time to overturn that and go back to the royalty that we were, because, in order for black lives to matter, Africa must matter.”
