Tiwa Savage, Davido, Sarkodie Make Nomination List Of 2018 BET Awards

Davido And Tiwa Savage Make Nomination List Of 2018 BET Awards

The 2018 BET Awards is scheduled to take place on Sunday, June 25, 2018, at the Microsoft Theater, Los Angeles, California, United States.

The organizers of the awards published the list of nominees for the respective categories and the one of most interest to Nigerians is the category for Best International Music Act, which features Davido and Tiwa Savage amongst other first-rate artistes across the world.

In 2014 Davido claimed the award for BET Best International Act: Africa, beating Diamond Platnumz, Mafikizolo, Sarkodie, Tiwa Savage and Toofan. The DMW singer is a favorite for this year’s edition of the award.

Tiwa Savage lost to Davido in 2014 and she would be hoping to claim this year’s award ahead of the DMW boss who at the moment seems to not be in good terms with Tiwa as both have unfollowed each other on Instagram following a slew of twitter comments made by Davido about her in response to a Wizkid tweet.

Others who made the list include DJ Khaled, who leads the pact with a total of six nominations, J. Cole, Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, and Beyonce.
