Disgruntled Nigerians took to social media to express their displeasure with AMVCA for not giving recognition to the actors, despite airing their movies on their platforms.
This comes after the 9th edition of the award show which took place at Eko Hotel and Suites in Lagos over the weekend, and saw Bimbo Ademoye, Broda Shaggi, BBNaija stars, and other celebrities win big.
Following the show, some Twitter users took to the microblogging platform to slamm the organizers of the award show for failing to recognize and nominate Destiny Etiko and her colleagues in Asaba and the Eastern part of Nigeria.

On all Africa Magic channels you see more of Destiny Etiko and Zubby micheal,
But when it comes to award they take it to Timini and shaggy,
Why?”
