As we count down to the 9th Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice ceremony on May 20, we have put together everything you need to know about the #AMVCA9 in numbers.

After Africa Magic announced the nominations for the AMVCA 9, we analysed all the nominations data since its inception in 2013. Here are some interesting facts:

  • There are 150 first time nominees this year, including Tobi Bakre, Ini Dima-Okojie , Fiyin Gambo, and many more.
  • Funke AKindele is the most nominated individual, and she has won the most awards;
  • Bovi Ugboma is the only person nominated this year and in 2013 who has not won any award;
  • If Bimbo Ademoye fails to win any award this year, she could tie the record for most nominations without any win;
  • Kunle Afolayan could break his previous record for the film with the most wins with #Anikulapo;
