Nairobi the capital city of Kenya will come alive on February 25th and February 26th 2011 when leading Nollywood practitioners and their counterparts from other Africa countries that have submitted entries for this year edition of Africa Movie Academy Awards will converge on the East Africa nation for the nomination night.

The event which will take place on Friday Night at the Laico Regency Hotel will be attended by Joke Silva and her husband Olu Jacobs alongside Rita Dominic, Mercy Johnson, Ini Edo, Mike Monsuruye, Ghanaian Jackie Appiah, Lynda Forson, Kate Henshaw Nuttal and Mike Ezeronye among others who have signified their intention to attend the event.

In a statement released by the Director of Administration of the award body, Mr.  Tony Anih the Nairobi event is being planned to connect with the East Africa block that comprised about eight countries which include Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, Malawi, and others.

“East Africa has made very strong showing and presence in AMAA since we started particularly in the last three editions. Apart from submitting films for the awards film makers and allied practitioners from these countries have come to Nigeria to attend the awards.

“The AMAA secretariat felt it is time to make them have a feel of the award by  taking the Nomination Night to them and thereby increasing the AMAA brand visibility in that region of Africa. Nairobi is central to East Africa and it is the economic hub of the region. It will be easy for people in East Africa to come to Nairobi. It will be a great Night.

Another feature of this year’s nomination Night is a concert that will follow it on Saturday February 26th at Carnivore Gardens in Nairobi featuring P-Square, J.  Martins and other top artistes from Kenya and South Africa.

According to Mr. Anih the concert will be an icing on the cake for the nomination adding that the footprint of AMAA will be so visible in East Africa after the two-legged events that participation in the award from the region will double in subsequent years.

  1. I really don’t get this Jackie and co business you people do. I don’t have anything against her but you constantly create emnity between the stars when in every headline involving her and other actress’ you mention her name and sum the others up as CO. I think its completly wrong. Two main Ghanaian actress Jackie and Lydia were mentioned here even though her name was misspelled. And why isn’t Naa included when all three won. Please stop creating enmity and making others feel bigger. They all work hard.

    • What is your headache about this? Was it only Lydia who wasn’t
      mentioned in the headline? Bigger stars like Ini Edo, Olu Jacobs and co were alkso not mentioned in the headline cos headlines are meant to be short and attractive as to capture readers mind. Why do u guys always want Jackie to be hated by GC at all cost.
      Whenever there are news aba Nadia, Naa and co, do u guys complain?
      The truth hurts but like it or not, Jackie is a hot cake and millions or even billioms of people like me love her and want to read good stories on her acnievements and hardworks.
      Would u have complained if Lydia was included in the headline and Jackie
      left out? So shut up if u don’t have any sensible thing to say , hypocrite.
      Everybody wouldn’t hate her just because u do. Concrats girl, u r really going places and may God continue to bless and lift u to higher heights. I wish them all the best.
