During the AFRIFF global awards night, the “remarkable actors and actresses” will be presented with their unique honors, which are sponsored by MTN.
Blossom Chukwujekwu, who received a nomination for Best Actor in a Drama at the Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCA) for his outstanding performance in The Trade, is among the recipients of honors.
For his electrifying performance as Scar in Shanty Town, Chidi Mokeme was nominated with Chukwujekwu and made the list as well.
Tobi Bakre is on the AFRIFF honors list for his other action star performance in Gangs of Lagos, and he won the Best Actor category at the AMVCA ceremony in May for his action star part in Brotherhood.
After a contentious denial of an AMVCA nomination, Kunle Remi will now receive recognition for his outstanding lead role in Anikulapo.
Richard Mofe-Damijo will also win an AFRIFF award for his portrayal of Paul Edima in the groundbreaking Netflix movie The Black Book, which he has called a career-defining role.
The following actors will also receive honors: Lateef Adedimeji and Femi Adebayo-Salami for the recent Yoruba epic hit, Jagun Jagun; Chioma Chukwuka for Gangs of Lagos; Funke Akindele for Battle on Buka Street; and Nse Ikpe-Etim for her powerful performance in 4-4-44.
