The Headies Award organizers on Wednesday, July 12 released the complete nomination list for the coming 2023 edition of the honourable ceremony.
While Grammy award winner, Burna Boy bagged eleven award nominations, his Afrobeat colleague, Wizkid was absent from the nomination list.
Wizkid’s omission from the nomination list raised eyebrows as several music pundits immediately called upon the attention of Headies Award organizers especially since the renowned artiste released his album, More Love, Less Ego in November 2022; this means Machala dropped a music project in the year under review.
