The BET Awards, which honor black excellence in entertainment and sports, held in the early hours of Monday, with Burna Boy and Wizkid, Nigerian music heavyweights, scooping an award each.

The ‘African Giant’ crooner bagged the ‘Best International Act’ award, while the ‘Ojuelegba’ singer secured the ‘BET HER’ category for his role in Beyoncé’s ‘Brown Skin Girl’.

The development makes Wizkid the African artiste with the most BET Awards win, while Burna Boy is securing his category for the second time – after winning the award in 2019.

This year’s award ceremony held at Los Angeles but virtually due to the health crisis brought about by the coronavirus pandemic.
