During his acceptance speech, Davido sent his condolence to D’banj who lost his one-year-old son on Sunday.
He said: “Before I go on, I wanna send condolences to my big brother. My condolences are with you. You are my brother.”
The singer also urged artistes in the diaspora to collaborate with their counterparts in Africa.
“And as I go on, I wanna talk about Africa. My continent has been so blessed to influence many cultures,” he said.
“Come to Africa, eat the food, wear the clothes. Get ready for me, let’s collaborate. My album drops this year. J. Cole. Yo Quay, I’m waiting on that verse Quay.”
