We are gradually drawing the curtains on the 2024 AMVCA, but not until we bring you all the major highlights from the event. From the Cultural Day outfits to the stunning red carpet looks, the energy was electric.
The award ceremony itself was a rollercoaster ride of emotions, with tearful acceptance speeches (think Chimeze Imo’s Trailblazer Award win) and moments of pure joy (Kehinde Bankole’s delight upon winning Best Lead Actress for “Adire“). A surprise performance by Shaffy Bello and Seyi Sodimu reuniting for their classic hit “Love Me Jeje” took us all down memory lane. It was a night that truly captured the spirit of African entertainment!
Genoveva Umeh, who won the Best Supporting Actress award for her role as Anna in Eku Edewor’s “Breath Of Life,” offered a heartfelt message of inspiration to aspiring actors

The last time Shaffy Bello and Seyi Sodimu performed together must have been decades ago, but this night at the AMVCAs, the duo graced the stage together to perform their classic hits, “Love Me Jeje” (1997) and “Money Man” (2005)

Kehinde Bankole was almost speechless when she received her award for best lead actress for her role in “Adire,” and we can’t fault her, she truly deserved it. She was also stunning in a floor-length embellished glittery gown.
