Empire Awards is a fast rising and high aiming award platform that finds it of interest and appealing to commend entertainment personnel's especially the rising stars such as artist's, dancers, comedians, writers, entrepreneurs, bloggers/pr's, Djs, Social media personnel's, and many more categories. Empire Awards is not your regular award, as their plaques of award presented to winners are indeed of any standard you woul find in the likes of Headies and Grammy awards, indeed they're here to rule and takeover for real.
It's first edition was held at Lagos in October, grazed the event were the likes of Oladips, Akeem Adisa, Dj Baddo, Small mummy, and a guest of other big faces in the industry. As it's 1st Edition, our blog was able to gather information that their was more of downs than ups in the voting and winners of some category awards, time factor and a host of some other things not put in place as promised.
But responding to this, the board of Empire Awards has decided to take bigger steps as it hosts the 2nd edition of the awards sometime this year. Winners won't just go home with about 45,000 naira worth of gold plaque but also walk home with glamorous sum of cash prizes, this is stipulated for certain award categories.
The Voting Process
Last year's voting was indeed awkward as the team had serious issues and at some point had to cancel all votes and open up another voting method.
This years' is way better:
To vote for your favourite nominee:
Using Mobile banking:
While making payment, input the CODE of the person you're voting for in the narration/description box and confirm payment. This would be recorded immediately under the name of the NOMINEE you have voted for.
Account to pay to: 1019951841 (Adeosun Oluwasegun Ajibola)
Using USSD Code:
Nominees should urge their fans to send a SCREENSHOT of their vote payment transfer.
This SCREENSHOT should then be sent by the NOMINEE to the Empire Award official along with the NOMINEES code.
The vote is then included in such NOMINEES platform instantly.
Don't forget to vote ladieslodgeent. as blogger/pr of the year. Code is 15C4
Personally, for ease and safety: Most preferably, Use the USSD method.
