The boss of the Nigerian Music Video
Awards, Cally Ikpe, has responded to controversy surrounding P-Square’s
absence in any of the categories, claiming the artists wanted it so.
“I personally like PSquare and they have good videos. It is not my fault that they weren’t nominated in any category this year. For some reasons best known to them, the artistes said they wanted to be excused from any award this year. We were only respecting their decisions,” he said.
Ikpe also condemned the high number of obscene music videos.
According to Ikpe, people who celebrate obscenity only try to hide under that to escape from their lack of imagination and talent.
Ikpe, the brain behind the Nigeria Music Video Awards, said such videos are automatically disqualified and don’t get any nomination in any category in the award.
