Toyin Abraham, a prominent figure in Nollywood, has commended the organizers of the Africa Magic Viewers' Choice Awards (AMVCA) for the remarkable success of this year's event.
The 10th edition of the awards has garnered attention, albeit with some criticism surrounding the snubbing of Funke Akindele's acclaimed film, 'A Tribe Called Judah.'
Despite 'A Tribe Called Judah' not receiving any awards despite its groundbreaking success, Toyin Abraham, Akindele's rival, has praised the recent AMVCA, labeling it as the "best and most genuine" edition yet.
On her Instagram page, Abraham wrote: “Best and realest AMVCA ever. Well done, @busola.tejumola. You did well and yes, we love you. @africamagic, well done. ”
This is coming barely two weeks after Abraham extended an olive branch to her colleague, Funke Akindele, saying they they became “competitors and persona non grata” due to gossips.
She recalled that their rivalry began in the Yoruba movie industry and they carried it over to the Nigerian-English cinema when they crossed over to Nollywood.
Abraham, however, said age and wisdom have made her realised that they can compete without being negatively competitive.
