is expected to be attended by the who’s who of the African entertainment scene.
Naeto
C and AKA’s star wattage will also be on full display to music fans

Naeto C & AKA |
"I'm
really excited to host this year’s Channel O Africa Music Video Awards,
especially on its 10th anniversary,” says Naeto C. “To be a part of
this experience
is totally awesome and I look forward to sharing this magical moment
with the rest of Africa on November 30th."
The Nigerian artist’s sentiments are echoed by AKA.
"I
am very honoured to co-host this celebration of Africa's finest talent
with Naeto C. I won my first Channel O Music Video award in 2011 and two
years later,
being in this position is testament to my loyal following. Thank You to
Channel O and the fans, it’s going to be a classic night,” says AKA
Naeto C has enjoyed a lengthy association with the
Channel O Africa Music Video Awards. In 2009 he won the highly coveted
Video of the Year award for his blowout hit, “Ki Ni Big Deal”, in 2010 the track “Ako Mi Ti Poju” saw him take home the
Most Gifted Hip Hop Video award and a year later, Most Gifted African West Video was awarded to "10 Over 10".

AKA, meanwhile, is a multiple nominee in 2013, with no less than three nods in the
Video of the Year category – for his own song “Jealousy”
and two collaborations, Xtatic/AKA & Priddy Ugly’s “Hit ‘Em Up” and
Zeus ft AKA & Tumi’s “#DatsWasup”. “Jealousy” is also in the running
for
Most Gifted Hip Hop – a category AKA won in 2011 for another of his growing list of chart-bangers, “Victory Lap”.
