Call for submissions: Northern-Ghana Entertainment Awards

According to a statement by the organisers Smile Multimedia, which is working in collaboration with the Celebrities Charity Development Foundation, the event is intended to “recognise and honour distinguished personalities who have positively contributed to the sound growth of the entertainment industry in Northern Ghana”.

The coming event follows the second edition that took place at the Radach Hotel in Tamale. Like that ceremony, the 2108 even will “concentrate on honouring persons who have made immense contribution and aided in the development of the entertainment industry in the year under review”.
