AFRIMA Deadline Will Not Be Extended
The International Committee of the All African Music Awards (AFRIMA) has warned that it will not extend the deadline for the 2022 edition. The awards which recognises creative talents in the continent called for entries on May 30 and will close on August 5.
“It is important that all relevant parties submit their entries on time this year. We are a very thorough and transparent organisation, and we have a clear process for the award ceremony every year,” said AFRIMA Juror, representing Diaspora Northern America, Hadja Kobele Keita. She added that the process of selecting the nominees and holding the ceremony is delicately planned.
“We do not just wake up and nominate people.”
Only submitted works which have been created between August 20, 2021, and August 5, 2022, being the year-in-review for all submissions will be accepted.
Nominees will be announced on August 17 after the works submitted have been vetted while voting will begin on August 24. The main ceremony will run from Thursday, November 3 to Sunday, November 6, 2022.
