The stage is set for the crowning of the next African best actor and actress of the year as the brightest and best in movies across the continent gather in the capital city of Yenagoa, Bayelsa State for this year’s edition of the African Movie Academy Awards(AMAA).

Erstwhile president of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN)), Mr. Ejike Asiegbu, last Thursday evening at the celebrity hangout, O’Jez, in Surulere, put up a show that was not only belittling as far as his personality and career was concerned.
