Sheye Banks was named On-Air Personality of the Year at the 2018 Scream Awards, claiming the honour in a ceremony that brought together some of the most prominent figures in Nigeria’s music and entertainment industry. The award represented a landmark moment in his career, arriving after a sustained period of broadcasting excellence that had earned him widespread recognition across the industry.

The Scream Awards, known for celebrating the very best of Nigerian entertainment across music, media, and culture, presented Sheye Banks with a distinction that reflected both his technical proficiency as a broadcaster and the deep affinity he has cultivated with his audience. His ability to translate a profound knowledge of music into compelling, accessible programming had long set him apart in a competitive field, and the 2018 award gave formal expression to what listeners and industry observers had recognised for some time.

“Every hour on air is a privilege. This award reminds me why I started and why I will never stop giving my best to the people listening,”  Sheye Banks.

Banks had spent the years prior to the award building his reputation steadily since relocating to Lagos, accumulating nominations and recognition that spoke to his growing stature in the industry. The Scream Award win marks the moment that recognition translates into the industry’s most tangible form of affirmation, setting the tone for what could follow in the years ahead for him.
