From the time DSTV’s African content flagship channel announced nominees for this year’s Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice awards, there was a lot for Ugandans to hope considering that after the hosts Nigeria, Uganda had followed closely with fourteen nominations.

Kenya had only eight and Ghana may even have had less.

Yet at the end of the plush award show that took place at Eko Suites in Lagos, Nigeria had picked up three awards including the Starlet award for Bisola, Kenya had collected six awards for Best Documentary, Supporting Actress and Best African Film for 18 Hours.
