Nigerian singer, Iledare Oluwajuwonlo popularly known as Jaywon, has lambasted the organisers of Headies awards for not nominating any of his songs for the 2019 edition of the annual music awards.

The organisers released the nominees’ list for the 13th Headies Awards on Tuesday.

Jaywon, who took his twitter page to express how disappointed he felt, said that he was not satisfied with the nomination.

He said:

“The Headies Award committee has always been shit to me.”

The singer expressed anger that none of his hit songs ‘Aje’ and ‘Saro’ were nominated in either “Best Vocal Performance” or “Best Alternative Song’ categories.

According to him, those two songs were supposed to be among the nominated ones but to his greatest surprise it was not so.

Meanwhile, some fans took to his page to react to it, supporting his position, @RaiFoKun said “That Best Vocal Performance (male) category for the 13 Headies is a bust!

Don’t know the exact parameters used, compared to folk on the list. ‘Aje’ by @JAYWONJUWONLO should have been made the cute for the year under review.

@Abiola VJ said

“I am not saying this because Jaywon is my G. but come on…..’Aje’ and ‘Saro’ should both be heavily considered for Vocal Best Performance and Best Alternative Song list.“

The Headies on October 1 announced the list of the nominees and most Nigerian music stars like Davido, Teni, Wizkid, Burna Boy got nominated.

This year’s edition which will hold on October 19 in Lagos, is tagged “The Power Of A Dream” and it will feature 29 unique categories to acknowledge and celebrate the work of various artists in different categories.
