The jury of the Ghana DJ Awards has voted to disqualify DJ Thinking from the 2022 edition of the show.
The DJ was nominated in the Discovery of the Year and Scratch DJ of the Year categories.
After the announcement of nominees on October 10, the jury launched an investigation into allegations that had been levied against the nominee.
It had been alleged that DJ Thinking has used the work of DJ Sonatty in a performance which earned him the nominations.
The board determined that DJ Thinking’s actions were inconsistent with the Ghana DJ Awards promotional regulations.
The regulations state that "it is the scheme’s goal to ensure that the Awards competition is conducted in a fair and ethical manner. If any campaign activity is determined by the Jury to work in opposition to that goal, whether or not anticipated by these regulations, the Board may take any corrective actions or assess any penalties that in its discretion it deems necessary to protect the reputation and integrity of the awards process."
The revoked nomination in the Scratch DJ of the year category has been given to DJ Snacky. The Nomination in the Discovery of the Year category will be replaced by DJ Juvenile.
