Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu has congratulated Nigerian artists nominated for the 2024 Grammy Awards, Burna Boy, Davido, Ayra Starr, Asake, and Olamide.

The Nigerian artists were nominated in a combined 10 categories at the Grammys, but all failed to win any awards.

Governor Sanwo-Olu in a post on X, however, congratulated the artists for making it to the Grammys podium.

Sanwo-Olu wrote, “A special shoutout to #burnaboy, #davido, #ayrastarr, #@asakemusik, and all Nigerian talents represented as nominees at the Grammy’s, the apex music award in the world.

“Your mastery reached unparalleled heights on those exclusive platforms, showcasing world-class talent we’re immensely proud of.

“To those who may feel disheartened by the results, remember, in the eyes of your fans and Nigerians, you’re everlasting winners and with every global arena and stadiums you fill up, your representation of Afrobeat and Nigeria is unparalleled, and soon you’ll light up the stages you desire as triumphant victors.

“Cheers to more timeless moments as you continue to tell the world our stories with your music.”
