AFRIMA just tapped a Nigerian rapper and a French-Senegalese host for its big night. The All Africa Music Awards revealed FalzTheBahdGuy and Liliane Maroune as hosts for its ninth edition happening in Lagos next January, making Falz the second Nigerian after 2Baba to helm the continental ceremony. The event, organized with the African Union Commission and Lagos State, features five days of activities, including a music summit and a main awards show broadcast globally.

Organizers praised the duo as representing the strength of African culture, highlighting Falz for his intelligent commentary and Maroune for her elegance and international influence. Falz, a multi-award-winning musician and actor known for films like Brotherhood and Chief Daddy, joins a prestigious list of past hosts including Akon and Pearl Thusi. Maroune, a television host and actress popular for West African series, brings a diverse background to the stage.

The announcement comes amid ongoing global voting across thirty-nine categories on the AFRIMA website. The schedule includes a Welcome Soirée, an Africa Music Business Summit at the Eko Convention Centre, a public Music Village at Ikeja City Mall, and a Nominees Party ahead of the main broadcast event. The red carpet and awards ceremony will be televised live to over eighty-four countries from the Eko Hotels and Suites venue.
