Oh Naira Marley must be in a very good mood this morning. The singer last night took home his first major award at the 2020 Soundcity MVP Awards, held at the Eko Convention Center, Lagos.

The award ceremony was hosted by South Africa’s media personality Bonang Matheba.

Naira beat Tiwa Savage (49-99), Chinko Ekun (Able God), Prince Kaybee (Banomoya), Shatta Wale (My Level), Burna Boy (On The Low), Rayvanny (Tetema), Zlatan (Zanku – Legwork) to clinch the award for Viewers’ Choice for his viral song Soapy.
