Gcina Mhlophe opened the awards by reading a beautiful poem and blessing the awards and all the attendees, nominees and winners.

“The youth’s potential to monetize their content and create job opportunities is immense,” said De Deus.
“More so, our vision is to make the awards the biggest event of its kind on the continent. We want to continue to grow and be on everyone’s feeds.”
