AMVCA Nominees

The AMVCA 2020 nominations are here and, for Nollywood movie lovers, you will not be disappointed.

The nominations were announced by one of our favourite Nollywood couples, Linda Ejiofor-Suleiman and her husband, Ibrahim Suleiman during a live broadcast.

The “Living in Bondage” remake “Breaking Free” and “God Calling” lead the charge on the list with 11 nominations each across various categories. And TV faves like Kemi Adetiba’s “King of Boys”, as well as Toyin Abraham for her role in “Bling Lagosians” and more got nominated as well.

If you’re wondering how to vote, 7 out of 28 categories are open to public voting and 21 will be decided by the AMVCA panel of judges with a new category onboard – The MultiChoice Talents factory Award.
