The event which recognizes and celebrates great achievements by distinguished men will see musical performances from Music Legends Meiway and the original Osibisa Band and the delectable Efya and Irene Logan, The Patch Bay Band and Tema Youth Choir.
The executive director of the EMY Africa Awards, Kojo Soboh told KOD on The Zone that this year’s edition of the EMYs themed “The role of responsible men in shaping society and building flourishing economy” is aimed at shaping the society by recognizing the role fathers or men play in the family and the society as a whole. He added that this year’s edition of the EMYs Awards will also award distinguished personalities outside Ghana.
