Unathi Nkayi saves the show

The Basadi In Music Awards is a grand event that seeks to recognise and celebrate the fantastic work that constantly contributes to the music and entertainment industry. There was an unexpected turn of events with the hosting lineup when they announced in the morning of the awards ceremony that Unathi Nkayi would be the host.

Unathi announced hours before the event that she would be replacing the initial host, Khanyi Mbau, who, for unforeseen circumstances, couldn't host the Basadi in Music Awards. Though this was a last-minute decision, the media personality killed it and amazingly hosted the awards in style.
