Gospel Music Africa (GMA) competition is officially set to kick off auditions in Nigeria on April 19, 2018.
GMA is the biggest gospel music reality TV competition and the first of its kind in Africa with online registrations grossing over 400,000 from 25 countries across the continent.

Participating countries include Nigeria, Ghana, Ethiopia, South Africa, Kenya, Liberia, Cameroun, Uganda, Lesotho, Niger, Gambia, Togo, Zimbabwe, Sierra Leone, Congo, Malawi and Zambia.

The music reality TV competition will have only 30 contestants battle to become the King or Queen of Gospel Music in Africa. Prizes to be won include a cash prize of $20,000, a brand new car and international recording deals.

According to Matthew Obono, Executive Producer of Gospel Music Africa: ‘’The time has come for Gospel Musicians to make spiritual impact, reap financial dividends from their talents and occupy the highest echelons of stardom in Africa without feeling the need to succumb to secular music for their meal tickets.’’

GMA Auditions will hold in Abuja on April 19, Owerri (April 22) and Lagos April (30).

Cross Rivers State Commissioner for Culture and Tourism Development Eric Anderson received the GMA Team during a facility visit to the TINAPA and CICC Hall, the proposed venue for the GMA House & Live Shows.
