    The 2020 African Muzik Magazine Awards (AFRIMMA) came to conclusion on November 15th and saw many artists across the continent take home numerous honors. For Uganda, however, we managed to get only one award besides the numerous nominations.

    Out of the many nominations Uganda grabbed, radio presenter James Onen aka Fat Boy is the only person who took home an award. He beat last year’s prize holder, Kenya’s Willy Tuva, for Africa’s Radio/TV personality of the year.
