This year’s nomination was released at a party in Malawi on Friday 15th March 2012. Last year, South African movies ‘Otelo Burning’ and ‘How to Steal 2 Million’ and Nigerian movie ‘Adesuwa’ garnered the most nominations for the award ceremony which was held in Lagos.

However, this year, Rita Dominic & Mildren Okon‘s “The Meeting” as well as Yvonne Okoro‘s “The Contract” were nominated in six categories each.

Actor OC Ukeje who recently won an award at the Africa Magic Viewer’s Choice Award is nominated in the Best Actor in a Leading Role category for his role in “Alan Poza” so as the late veteran, Justus Esiri for his movie, “Assasins Practice“. Yvonne Okoro and Rita Dominic were also nominated in the Best Actress in a Leading Role category.
