The Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) board has lifted the ban imposed on Ghanaian artistes, Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy.

It may be recalled that the ban was after a brawl occurred between the two during the 20th Anniversary edition of the VGMA in 2019.

In a statement issued on February 12, 2021, “the Board (VGMA) agreed to admit them back to the scheme, hoping that such altercations that bring the scheme into disrepute, do not occur in future events. This makes them eligible to participate in this and subsequent editions of the VGMA, If they so desire. By extension, their collaborative works with other artistes are eligible for participation in the VGMA”

Meanwhile, deadline for nominations for the 22nd edition of the VGMA closes on Monday, February 15, 2021.
