Nana AK wins TV3 Talented Kidz 2020

For the second consecutive time, a poet has won TV3 Talented Kidz reality show.

Nana AK, after weeks of showing great dexterity, beat eight others to emerge winner of Season 11 of the reality show.

It has been weeks of intense dedication and hard work by some of the talented kids who took part in the year’s TV3 Talented Kidz reality show. Over the years, the reality show has unearthed some of the biggest names and talents in Ghana. The world famous DJ Switch and Nakeeyat Sam Dramani are products of the show.

Starting before the Coronavirus pandemic took its toll on numerous countries including Ghana, TV3 employed a well-executed plan of going on with the show while adhering to all the safety protocols. The TV3 Talented Kidz going ‘virtual’ did not affect the reality show in any way.

After the first round, three contestants – Power Pack (Acrobats) Rock Anokye (Rapper), Krobea Band (Music Band) were evicted. The remaining five – Nana AK, DJ Spices, Allo Afro Kid, Amoako Mills, and Stonegal – gave it their all in the second round.

After a heated second round, Nana AK took over the crown from Nakeeyat Sam Dramani (who is also a poet) as the winner of this year’s Talented Kidz reality show.
