Obrafour has been invited to perform at the second edition of the Ghana Music Awards UK slated for September 9 at the Splash Gaumont Palace, formerly Dominion Centre, 9 Broadway Woodgreen, London N22 6DS.

He is expected to delight fans with his danceable songs which will turn the venue into a dance hall.

The event will also witness performances from Ghana’s female dancehall artiste Ebony, who will be giving Ghanaians the best of dancehall music that Ghana has to offer.

Kumasi-based popular gospel artiste, Ernest Opoku, who has carved a niche for himself as one of Ghana’s enterprising gospel artistes, has also been billed to perform at the awards ceremony.

According to the organisers, this year’s event will deliver back-to-back performances from all the artistes billed for the event.
