YouTube Celebrates African Creators And StoryTellers

The first-ever African Creators and Creativity celebration was recently held virtually in Nigeria by YouTube Africa to engage, educate, and inspire African creators to grow on their platform. Through knowledge and building sessions from YouTube experts, upcoming creators were supposed to learn from the best from Africa in order to impact others and put a spotlight on the African content.
Selected creators across Africa were given the chance to talk about the rich culture from the continent and what their channel was all about. Common misconceptions about Africa was addressed and how the narrative can be changed by creators using YouTube.
Creators whose channels have crossed a 100,000 milestone subscribers received Play Button awards and this was to push other creators to also achieve same.
“We will continue to support African creatives. We will continue to use our platform to inform, educate and inspire. We know it has been a tough year with the pandemic and all but YouTube is here for the creatives” Cecil Frot- Contaz, Head of YouTube EMEA in her submission said.
Creators from Africa selected for the event included Ghana’s own Ameyaw Debrah, MarkAngel and Lily Pope from Nigeria, Sharon Mundia from Kenya, amongst others.
Fireboy DML, Sho Madjozi, Niniola, Reekado Banks, and Sauti Sol overwhelmed virtual audience with their live band performances. Ikorodu Boys also did not disappoint with their dope dance performance.
