Mamas hit Nija for the second time around, first it was in Abuja, now is Lagos. S.A. is once again given a cold shoulder by MTV. What ya’ll think about this? Anyone in particular are you guys looking forward to see perform or win an award tomorrow.

    I actually don’t understand how they can skip Mzansi for any other country in Africa. The fact that we hosted the world cup doesn’t it say a lot about our country.

    i don’t think highly of the mamas ever since they decided to ditch S.A when they launch the awards back in 08.

    feel like England and USA right now, they miss the 2018 and 2022 world cups over Qatar and Russia. We miss the 08, 09 and 2010 mamas over Abuja, Kenya and Lagos. Ain’t that a bitch.

    I've been asking myself this question for 3yrs now, that how doesn't the super power of Africa fail to secure the hosting of MTV Awards for 3 yrs?

    Hey guys what did u expect, the channel is head by a Nigerian (Alex Okosi), so he’ll always look out for home.
