The highly anticipated Africa Magic Viewer’s Choice Awards 2018 took place last night and it was an evening filled with glitz and glam.
Though it came as a rude shock to many that despite the multiple nominations the movie “King of boys” got, yet it did not receive any award for its outstanding cast and crew. Kemi Adetiba‘s “King of Boys” which starred Sola Sobowale, Toni Tones, Illbliss, Akin Lewis, Reminisce, Adesua Etomi-Wellington, and many others, got snubbed at the award event.
The movie “Living in Bondage” produced by Charles Okpaleke and directed by Ramsey Nouah stole the show after getting eight awards out of 11 nominations.
