The prestigious Annual Gathering of Africa's Best (GAB) Awards celebrates its 20th edition on Sunday December 16 2018 at the Hilton Hotel London Canary Wharf.
Organised by the longest-surviving media organisation targeting Diaspora Africans - Trumpet Media Group, the GAB Awards was instituted in 1999.

The Trumpet Newspaper, concerned with the negative stories about Africa and Africans which was not a true reflection of the community and the continent; had earlier started in 1995 as a way of promoting the positive image of Africa and Africans.
The GAB Awards goes steps beyond the objectives of The Trumpet Newspaper, by rewarding excellence among those who are promoting the positive image of Africa and Africans. It is open to Africans and Friends of Africa.
Founder - Femi Okutubo stated that 'We pride ourselves in not just concentrating on celebrities and A-list award recipients. Many of our recipients are unsung achievers. Many GAB Award recipients have gone on to launch themselves further and attained greater heights.'
