Botswana will once again be in the international spotlight following local talents, William Last KRM and Jack Botlhoko's nominations for the African Entertainment Awards, USA (AEAUSA).

The AEAUSA, formed in 2015 and headquartered in the USA, recognises and rewards African and Caribbean talents giving winners global stage attention. Comedian-cum-rapper William Last KRM has earned three nominations, making this his second time in a row.

He faces competition from Ghanaian YouTuber, Wode Maya, who recently spent over two weeks in the country exploring some of Botswana's treasures, along with seven other content creators.
