In a remarkable show of commitment and integrity, organizers of the North East Music Awards (NEMA) have fulfilled their promise to produce a professional music video for their 2024 Artist of the Year, Omario CK, despite the absence of both voting and external sponsorship.

Omario CK emerged as the biggest winner at the recent edition of the awards scheme, taking home three prestigious titles — Artist of the Year, Popular Song of the Year, and Collaboration of the Year. As part of the rewards package for the top winner, the NEMA team assured him of a high-quality music video to enhance his craft and visibility. True to their word, the video has now been successfully produced and released.

What sets NEMA apart is its unique approach to awarding talent. It is currently the only music awards scheme in Ghana that does not depend on voting, yet it manages to reward its winners with relevant prizes beyond just plaques. In a climate where many award schemes struggle to fulfill promises, especially without sponsorship, the NEMA team’s efforts have drawn admiration across the Northern music landscape.

The release of this video not only marks a new milestone in Omario CK’s career but also sets a new standard for awards schemes across the country, proving that dedication and credibility still matter in the industry.
