But Nigerian pop star and Achievas
Entertainment singer, Joshua Iniyezo,
better known as Solidstar thinks
otherwise. He said the awards do not
interpret what they represent.
The Baby Jollof singer said
the awards have been watered down
and now goes to the highest bidder,
without the need
recognising creativity.
Solidstar said good music does not
get the awards, but rather ‘famzers’
get nominated while ‘highest bidders’
win the awards.

Solidstar did not even make the
nominee list of NEA so many
wondered what his outrage
was about. He wrote on Twitter:
most of these Nigerian awards are
just jokes! especially NEA!
