Nollywood actress, Nse Ikpe Etim has reacted to her junior colleague, Osas Ighodaro’s AMVCA win over her.
Kemi Filani reported that Osas Ighodaro had for the second time in a row won the Best Actress in a Drama category at the AMVCA 2023 for her role in ‘Man of God’.
The actress’s performance in “Man of God” earned her a prestigious award.
Osas Ighodaro knocked down the likes of Bimbo Ademoye, Queen Nwokoye, Ini Edo, Nse Ikpe, and more to clinch the prestigious award.
The nominees in the category included Bimbo Ademoye for her outstanding performance in “Anikulapo,” Enado Odigie for her role in “Flawsome,” Immaculata Oko Kasum for her captivating portrayal in “Ile Owo,” Ini Dima-Okojie for her remarkable performance in “Flawsome,” Ini Edo for her powerful presence in “Shanty Town,” Nimo Loveline for her compelling performance in “The Planters Plantation,” Nse Ikpe-Etim for her impactful role in “Shanty Town,” Queen Nwokoye for her brilliant performance in “Strained,” and Scarlet Gomez for her exceptional portrayal in “Wura.”
With the caliber of people in the category, many weren’t expecting Osas to clinch the award, especially when her performance in MOG couldn’t be compared to the likes of Ini Edo, Nse Ikpe, and Queen.
Recall that last year, Osas Ighodaro also won the award for Best Actress in Drama for her role in ‘Rattle Snake’.
