Organizers of the yearly African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA), have announced the postponement of this year’s edition of the award earlier scheduled for April 2015 shortly after the nomination process. It will now hold in June.
The shift was made in honour of Micheal Anyaim-Osigwe, elder brother to AMAA founder, Peace Anyaim- Osigwe, who passed on recently.
According to the Director of Administration, Tony Anih; “The late Micheal has been a pillar of
support for AMAA since its inception and his untimely death has since thrown some
immediate challenges on us as a body, but we are pressing on. That’s why we had to change the date from its traditional month of April to
June to allow us prepare and respond to the current realities. We will announce the actual date for nominations and the main award in
April and June.”
He also noted that entries remain open until January 31st 2015. Source: spyghana.com
