Ghana Meets Naija 2012
The maiden edition of the ‘Ghana Meets Naija’ musical concert was last year introduced to celebrate and unite musicians in Ghana and Nigeria. The brand is growing with exciting packages and it is swiftly becoming a force to reckon with.
The idea was conceived and birthed by MC extraordinaire, Bola Ray, nurtured by his Empire Entertainment crew to bring the two West African countries together on one stage in the musical realm.
The brand itself is a unifier with a sole aim of championing peace and co-existence between the two countries who have become role models to the rest on the continent.
Ghana Meets Naija in its second season is perhaps the first and the biggest concert on the African continent where the very best of artistes with smashing hits from the two countries are assembled on one platform to entertain thousands of music enthusiasts.

@paulina, Don’t worry about the fact that, the same artistes being used every now and then. They are the artistes available now. Let’s not compare Ghana and Nigeria to the US or Europe yet. Besides i think you failed to read the story well. Ghana Meets Naija concept has been spelt out well. Its for artistes with banging hits in the year, so if one artiste manages to get hits every year that people are dancing to, such an artiste will always be on the bill.
