He wrote on his Facebook shortly after the event that: โ€œAlmost a perfect programme at the CAF Awards soiled by lack of local content. But why, they couldnโ€™t find any Ghanaian musician? Pathetic!โ€

โ€œInstead of treating us to some good Ghanaian performances, as well, CAF decided to populate the stage with Naija ones plus others, including a Nigerian artiste who was dressed as if he lost his way to the gym. I hear he is called Wizkidโ€, he stressed.
