Yemi Alade slams BET Award organizers over poor treatment

African artists who were nominated for the 2015 BET Awards have been reacting to the humiliation they faced at the event which was held in Los Angeles.

She opined that what the event organizers did was shameful and a mockery to the African artists present at the event, wondering why the African category should be held earlier before the main event and why African artists should be told to collect their plaques backstage.
