Preparations for the fourth edition of the prestigious
Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCAs)
kicks into yet another gear as nominees will be
announced on Friday, December 11, 2015.
Organizers advised DStv and GOtv audiences to tune

Africa Magic channels at 21:30 CAT. Public voting
opens immediately after the announcement and
closes on the 26th of February, 2016.
The nominee announcement, which will be hosted
by ace Kenyan broadcaster Larry Madowo and
popular Nigerian comedienne Chigurl, is once again
brought to viewers across the continent by Africa
Magic in association with MultiChoice and the
headline sponsor, Amstel Malta.
The Director, M-Net (West) Wangi Mba-Uzoukwu,
said: “We are pleased to invite our viewers to tune
in as Africa Magic announces nominees for the
2016 AMVCAs. The AMVCAs remain the most
important celebration of film and television talent
across Africa, and for the 2016 edition we have
received over 2,500 entries. Everyone is
undoubtedly excited and I urge viewers to tune in as
we find out those who made the final cut.”
Since the maiden edition in 2013, the AMVCAs have
celebrated the contributions of African filmmakers,
actors and technicians to the success of the
continent’s film and television industry. With the
fourth edition, which is scheduled to hold in March
2016, viewers can expect to see awards in
categories ranging from acting, directing to
scriptwriting and cinematography, to newly
announced categories like the Best Movie for West
Africa, Best Movie for East Africa, and Best Movie
for Southern Africa.
