Citi TV announces nominees for maiden Entertainment Achievement Awards [Full list]

The final nomination list for the maiden edition of the Entertainment Achievement Awards has been unveiled.

The nominees’ announcement was aired on February 16, 2021, on Citi TV’s morning show, Breakfast Daily with AJ Sarpong and Kweku David as hosts.

The Academy, for the past weeks, went through all the necessary processes for analyzing, sifting, and whittling down the entries to the required numbers for nominations.

Earlier, creatives were asked to file for nomination for the awards, through the Entertainment Achievement Awards website, https://entertainmentachievementawards.com.

The Entertainment Achievement Awards seeks to recognise and celebrate entertainers and entertainment industry players, who have distinguished themselves in the practice of their art and in their chosen fields of endeavour.

It also aims at leading the way in sanitising and transforming Ghana’s entertainment scene, in a bid to create artistic products that can firmly compete on any global stage.

The scheme covers areas such as sports, music, film, fashion, photography, media, comedy, among others.

The main award ceremony will be held virtually on March 27, 2021.

The Entertainment Achievement Awards is powered by Citi TV and sponsored by Good Day Energy Drink.
