  • Lagos Braces for 9th AFRIMA Awards as Artists and Delegates Arrive in the City

    Lagos Braces for 9th AFRIMA Awards as Artists and Delegates Arrive in the City

    Champion News reports that Lagos is set to host the 9th AFRIMA Awards, with artists and delegates arriving ahead of a concert and the live awards ceremony at Eko Hotels and Suites.

    The Guardian Nigeria also reported that the state is positioning culture and entertainment as a development driver as the event draws visitors, industry executives, and media attention.

    Music In Africa highlighted organisers’ announcement that Falz and Liliane Maroune will host the ceremony, reinforcing the show’s pan-African outlook.

    Echotitbits Take: AFRIMA is still the continent’s big “home-stage” moment. Expect fashion, networking, and a tourism bump for Lagos—plus plenty of storyline fuel heading into global awards season.

    Reporting by Guardian Nigeria says media personality Yaw Naija and veteran DJ Jimmy Jatt are staging the second edition of the Rewind Flashback Concert, with Abuja and Lagos dates announced.

    The show is pitched as a nostalgia-driven night—reviving late-’90s and early-2000s hits and targeting fans who want “old school” energy during the holiday rush.

    Also noted by ThisDay (Website): “Yaw… alongside… Jimmy Jatt, will host… Rewind Flashback Concert… Abuja… and… Lagos.” (https://www.thisdaylive.com/)

    Separately, Punch Newspapers (Website) reported: “Music lovers are set for a nostalgic experience…” (https://punchng.com/)

    Echotitbits take: Nostalgia concerts are becoming a reliable second lane of live entertainment—older audiences, higher spending power, and brand-friendly lineups. Watch for the final performer list and post-show videos; strong execution could turn Rewind into an annual franchise.
