As Charterhouse, organisers of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards call for entries for the 21st edition of the scheme, Head of Public Events of the company Robert Klah says the inclusion or otherwise of Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale will be determined after the board is reconstituted.
The two dancehall giants were banned indefinitely from the awards scheme, stripped of all the awards they won last year and asked to return the plaques after they disrupted the 20th edition of the event.
“Also the two artistes are hereby stripped of all the awards they won at the 20th VGMA and are thus requested by the board to return all plaques in their possession to Charterhouse effective immediately,” read a member of the board, Amandzeba at a press conference held by Charterhouse at the Alisa Hotel.
“Reconstitution of the board is happening this month. Submissions are going to end on 31st but it doesn’t necessarily mean that work on nomination ends because when the board is working and they feel some particular music has done well, they can find out if submissions have been made and if submissions have not been made, sometimes, they reach out to the persons involved just to find out if they are willing to tender in. These are some of the things that happen in the background.”
