Sarkodie has for the second time earned a nomination in the Best International act category of the BET Awards. A formal anouncement on Wednesday afternoon paired him alongside Nigeria’s Davido and Tiwa Savage, as well as South African group Mafikizolo, Diamond Platnumz (Tanzania) and Toofan from Togo. A tight category it is, a win would mean a second clinch at what is solely a reserve of outstanding African acts. This year’s ceremony holds on June 29.
