Tiwa Savage on Sunday won the 2018 MTV Europe Music Awards (MTV EMAs) in the Best African Act category.
The annual MTV EMA held Sunday night at the expansive Bilbao Exhibition Center, Bilbao, Spain, featuring breathtaking performances from top artistes, and awards to music artistes around the globe in different categories.
The African act category was infused into the MTV EMA to enhance musical alliances across borders, and promote cultural integrations.
Tiwa Savage was nominated alongside fellow Nigerian act, David Adeleke, aka Davido; South Africa’s Distruction Boyz and Shekinah; Kenya’s Nyashinski and Fally Ipupa from the DRC.
She lost to Davido in the Best International Act category of the Black Entertainment Television (BET) Awards in June of this year.
