Head of Public Events and Communications for Charter House Robert Klah has revealed that rapper and singer Amerado’s team has reached out to the organisers of the Telecel Ghana Music Awards regarding a nomination snub.
This comes shortly after he took to social media, questioning organisers of this year’s Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA) formally known as Vodafone Music Awards (VGMA) on why they failed to nominate his hit song, ‘Kweku Ananse’, during the unveiling of the nominee categories on March 28.
In a tweet on X, the rapper questioned why the original version of the Kwaku Ananse did not earn a place in the categories whereas the remix, featuring Fameye earned a place in the Best Collaboration category.
In a post on X, the rapper questioned the reason the original version of Kwaku Ananse did not earn a place in the ‘Most Popular Song of the Year’ category.
“Dear @GHMusicAwards, Why was Kwaku Ananse (original) not nominated?”
In response to Amerado’s question, Robert Klah commended the rapper and his team for reaching out to the organizers of the award scheme for an amendment.
“They (Amerado’s team) have already contacted us. They moved from social media to contacting us directly and following what has to be done.
“That information is out there so for those who feel strongly about that, they have done the right things”, he said on Hitz FM.
He also stated that the TGMA board has opened a one-week window to check “errors and omissions” hence, these checks, if done, will prove if Kweku Anase will be included in the category.
“They have submitted their petition and I am sure the board will sit on that together with all the submissions received.
They [Amerado and his team] are taking advantage of the one-week window”, he stated.
