    One of the categories for the Best of Nollywood (BON) Awards has been renamed in honour of the late gospel artist Sammie Okposo, who passed away on Friday, November 25.

    The award’s organisers announced this in a statement on Wednesday, November 30, saying that the ‘Best Soundtrack Category’ would be renamed in honour of the 51-year-old.

    BON founder Seun Oloketuyi commented on the most recent development, stating that even though the BON is not a music award, the need to honour Sammie was what spurred the shift.

    He wrote:

    “Sammie Okposo in his lifetime was a force, and he did a lot for the growth of gospel music in Nigeria and beyond.

    “We are not a music award, but we feel the need to honour him in some way. This was what inspired us to rename the Best Soundtrack category after him. His loss will be felt by all and this is just a way to immortalize him.”

    The 2022 edition of the Best of Nollywood (BON) Awards is set to hold this weekend on Saturday, December 3, in Owerri, Imo State.

    Oloketuyi noted that the host of the 2022 edition of the BON awards, Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State, has opened his doors wide for the entertainment industry, particularly the movie sector, to contribute to the financial growth of the state’s economy through tourism and complement his achievement in the state.
