The ninth edition of the Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards will begin today with an ‘Opening Night and Cultural Day’ event with other series of activities preceding the award night scheduled to hold on Saturday, May 20.
In a statement released to the media, the Executive Head of Content and West Africa Channels at MultiChoice Nigeria, Busola Tejumola, said the ninth edition presents an opportunity for the organisers to raise the bar in terms of rewarding talents in both African film and television industry
“Last year, we had an eight-day line-up of activities leading to the award night. This year will be no different. We have decided to sustain the momentum by bringing back all the activities. The only difference is that they will all take place within three days.”
In this year’s runway competition, the winners stand the chance to walk away with cash prizes and the opportunity to work with Pepsi, one of the brands they are set to create innovative designs for on the runway. The celebration will climax with the award night on May 20.” she said
