Urban Gospel Recording Artiste and Music Minister Obiora Obiwon was honoured with two awards last weekend – ‘Album of the Year’ and ‘Collaboration of the Year’ – at the maiden edition of Applause Magazine Achievers Awards.
The awards presented at a ceremony on Saturday March 21, 2015 at the
Sheraton Hotels Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria were in recognition of Obiora Obiwon’s album ‘Gold Water’ and his HipHop influenced single ‘Hail My King’ which featured Frank Edwards, Eben and Kenny K’ore.
Reacting on Social Media, Obiwon simultaneously alluded to recent musical recognitions and hinted at his 2015 plans as he said, “[I am] Surprised again to be honoured twice… [I am] Now looking excitedly at the rest of this Anniversary Year (2005 – 2015) and projects… Glory to God alone… ” It may be recalled that Obiwon won four gospel music awards in one night (December 2014) and another one earlier in the same year for this same body of work.
Applause Magazine Achievers Awards is the collaborative platform of Salvation Crusaders Media, creators of the ‘Minstrels TV Show’ on Dove Television by the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) and The National Drama Unit of the RCCG. The award categories cut across several Christian/Gospel accomplishments and also include: Artiste of the Year (Musical), Actor of the Year (Movies), Movie of the Year, Song of the Year, New Artiste of the Year, Best Male and Best Female Vocalist, among others. An honorary award for “Character and Integrity Personality of the Year” was also presented to internationally renowned preacher, Pastor E. A. Adeboye of the RCCG days before the event.
ABOUT OBIORA OBIWON
Urban Gospel Recording Artiste and Music Minister Obiora Obiwon displayed a high affinity for music right from early childhood on the streets of ‘Coal City’ Enugu, Nigeria. After initial stints with a pioneering Nigerian HipHop group Thorobreds, Obiwon in 2005 debuted as a solo R’n’B/Soul Artiste.
In 2007 Obiwon claimed major Nigerian music industry awards and recognition, after the release of his debut album the previous year.
In 2008 Obiwon revealed he had undergone a deep spiritual experience and subsequently switched musical focus to the Christian/Gospel genre. Since then he has continually impacted the Nigerian music industry with his sound, style, ministry, classic hits and songs that stretch beyond the borders of his focal genre and location.

ReplyDeleteStella I am calling out the bv that is called LA effizy. Her comments on the Anna ebiere post were nothing but pure vile. I don't know Anna but I feel LA effizy was nothing but a pure hypocrite. There is a saying remove the log from your eye before u remove the speck from others. You have forgotten your family history was played out here. How your sister had a baby for your sisters scarecrow of a hubby....did you curse her as much as u cursed and called Anna stupid . did your sister not know the dude was gonna marry your sister but yet went ahead and had a baby for him...so who are u to talk trash..ugly ass bitch..Stella pls post my comment...as for LA effizy and her sisters if u like come and masturbate under my comment I said the truth
ReplyDeleteAre you minding the bastard? Judgemental fucktards

And hunt my comments all your lives. Afterall that's what you live for. My family history kor, my family history nii. Mtcheeeeew.

Laeffizy, check ur mirror b4 u call someone names. Nneotta even make small sense, kebe dey like imbecile, no wonder she strayed to Ugi Augustine's dick.
DeleteMs Gemini, as your sister o, she spilled your family story here. Atleast we got to know Kebe is hearing impaired...no wonder.
As long as you look you look like a castrated stock fish....please go and feed your scarecrow bonga fish hubby...bitch
DeleteLmao@ scarecrow bonga fish hubby.
DeleteApart from virgins every girl that fucks without protection will get pregnant unless you are barren. There are two choices have an abortion or keep the baby. People bring sob stories about being pregnant and most of u say keep the baby yet people are cursing the pregnant girl..you all know what bp does to pregnant women. What of damilola and many others that got pregnant before marriage is it because they got wived..do u know if flavour will wife her...

ReplyDeleteubok Abasi. u people hav com again. i personally know laefizy and gemini bcos we attended the same church when i was in cally, and unical as well. All or most of wat that anon said dat day were lies. Laefizy actually behaves like a snub in church sha, cos she no dey talk to people. But aside that their family is a very good one in cally and the girls were well behaved cos of their dad's strictness. Most of these una nyash opening na lie abeg.
