Nollywood actress, Lilian Afegbai has called out the organisers of the Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards, AMVCA, for snubbing her in its 2026 nominations.

DAILY POST reports that the organisers recently unveiled the nominees for the 12th edition of the AMVCA, with Lilian Afegbai’s co-star in ‘To Kill A Monkey’, Bimbo Akintola earning a nomination for Best Lead Actress.

Reacting, Afegbai slammed the organisers for snubbing her, arguing that her character, Idia, was the most trending character in the hit series, ‘To Kill A Monkey.’

She, however, said she doesn’t care much about validations, adding that the organisers can “eat” their award.

On her X handle, she wrote, “AMVCA smh. I always choose to believe everything happens for a reason.

“I don’t need a nomination for validation. The truth is clear: Nobody trended like Idia from TKAM last year. Her acting was 100. You guys can eat your award.”
