The spoken prayers of the elders is largely believed to play a major part in the lives of the younger generation.

Few months ago, singer Burnaboy’s grandfather prayed for him that his next award is going to be a ‘Grammy Award’.

And yesterday, Burna Boy’s album, African Giant got nominated in the Best World Album category. He was nominated in the category alongside Altin Gün for Gece, Bokanté & Metropole Orkest Conducted By Jules Buckley for What Heat, Nathalie Joachim With Spektral Quartet for Fanm D’Ayiti, and Angelique Kidjo for Celia.

This came as a big surprise for Nigerians including top artistes in the country.
