Wizkid and Sakordie

Sarkodie has won the award for ‘Best International Act: Africa’ at the 2012 edition of the BET Awards!

The Ghanaian rapper jointly won the award with Nigerian pop act ‘Wizkid’   at the awards ceremony taking place at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, California on July 1, 2012.

The EME act and Sarkodie had faced tough competition from other nominees – Nigerian rapper Ice Prince, Kenyan Hip-Hop/R&B group Camp Mulla, South African singer Lira and French speaking Malian rapper Mokobe for the coveted Best African Act prize.

Thankful!‘, an excited Wizkid tweeted.

This isn’t the first time the Best African Act award will be jointly won. Last year, African pop giants D’banj and 2face came out tops and received a joint award prize in the same category.
