Ghanaian media personality, Nana Romeo, has addressed organisers of the just-ended 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards, describing their organisation on the red carpet as poor.
In an interview with GhanaWeb’s Joseph Henry Mensah, on May 12, 2025, Nana Romeo urged Charterhouse to scrutinise the outfits of attendees before they enter the event venue.
Citing a lady named Benedicta Gyamfua who he described as poorly dressed, the media personality indicated that such an occurrence could have been prevented.
“Going forward, I feel TGMAs should put some measures in place whereby we would scrutinise people. So, if you are not well-dressed for the event, you would not be allowed in there. If we keep encouraging such people to attend the event year in and year out, a time would come when people would wear only panties at the event,” he said.
Nana Romeo, however, applauded fashion icon, Nana Akua Addo, for her outfit at the 2025 African Magic Viewers Choice Awards (AMVCA2025) in Nigeria.
He also called on some netizens criticising her for attending the event in Nigeria over Ghana to refrain from it.
“This is a lady who has taken fashion as a serious business. She wants to be known in the world based on a sense of fashion. Over the years, we all know TGMA has encouraged everybody on the red carpet; TikTokers, even DJ Azonto wore anything he liked to the event. So, if you were Nana Akua Addo you would not want to be on the same carpet with these people.
“Look at how Nigerians take fashion seriously. So, Nana Akua chose Nigeria over Ghana. She didn’t just go, they invited her and that invitation comes with some incentive. So, if Nigeria is calling you for an event and TGMAs is also calling you for an event, you would choose the one that would work for you… Look at how she spent money on her outfit and you think she would come and play with anybody. So, nobody should attack her for anything,” he added.
