Although Africa and Nigeria seemed not to have featured or made a good outing at the awards, there are several categories it has prospects such as the ‘Best Song In Any Language’, ‘Best Parish Choir’ not to mention the potential of submitting in three global (and colonial languages), English, Portuguese and French, that are the continents lingua francas.
