One of the highlights of the 2021 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards was the immaculate delivery from the hosts – from the red carpet to the main awards shows.
The first day of the two-day event saw Citi TV’s AJ Sarpong and TV3’s Giovani Caleb on stage as the presenters for the show.
After the show, social media was awash with messages giving thumbs up to the ebullient presenter, who has over the years endeared herself with even patrons with her exceptional emceeing skills.
This was not the first time, ‘The Chat’ host had mounted the VGMA stage. In 2018, she co-hosted the red carpet with TV3’s Johnnie Hughes.
“From doing protocol and production at VGMAs in 2015/2016 to hosting the red carpet in 2018 to being the main host on #VGMA22 Day1 in 2021 with my boo the incredible @giovani.caleb. The road may be long but if you keep at it, eventually it will come full circle!” she wrote on social media.
