The 1st African International Film Festival (AFRIFF) holds later this year in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital. Mrs. Peace Anyiam_Osigwe, founder of AMAA, made this disclosure at the recent 6th Africa Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) held in Yenogoa.

The film maker added that what makes TAVA different from other awards held in the country is because “it is a platform created to harmonise all aspects of story_telling that employ pictures and sounds, music videos, film, television and advertising commercials. While other awards talk mainly of people in front of the camera.”

One is bound to mistake her for one of the screen goddesses. Endowed with good shapes and curves, Vicky Njoku (what a coincidence),is on course to redefine her destiny. She’s drifting away from what she knows how to do best -modelling into acting to make her mark.

The stage is set for the maiden edition of the Nigerian Film and Television Awards (TERRACOTTA) as the judges have announced the nominees in the various categories of the awards. The categories announced were feature film, documentary, student and short film, drama, comedy, soaps, game shows, magazine, talk shows, actuality, animation and other varieties.

Winners of the 2009/2010 edition of the Nigerian Film Corporation (NFC) annual film essay competition have been announced.
