There’s no doubt that if Ugandans and Eddy Kenzo’s fans abroad continue to vote the way they are doing, Eddy Kenzo may probably be the first Ugandan to win such a big and ‘real’ award, thank to social media.
This week, Eddy Kenzo was nominated for the new BET Awards category, "Viewer's Choice Best New International Artist" in the annual American entertainment awards slated for June 28 at the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live in Los Angeles, CA.
BET Awards are organised annually by America's Black Entertainment Television network to celebrate African Americans and other minorities in music, acting, sports, and other fields of entertainment.
As always, in voting there happens to be invalid votes. Well, Uganda’s most loved social media personality who also dubs a CEO of Gagamel, Bebe Cool voted to show his support for fellow Uganda, however, his vote will not be counted, thus Invalid.
For one to vote validly according to rules of BET (visit their website here), for the Viewer's Choice "Best New International Artist". One needs to use the following hashtags to vote #IpickCassper from South Africa, #IpickEddy from Uganda, #IpickMzVee from Ghana, #IpickGeorge from London, #IpickMic from Liverpool and #IpickNovelist from London on these platforms website, instagram and twitter @BET_Intl.
However, Bebe Cool never followed the rules, he either unknowingly or knowingly casted his vote with hashtag #PickEddy INSTEAD of #IpickEddy which makes it invalid, the tweet gathered 22 retweets, several replies and 38 Favourites which make most of the votes wasted.
