Lil Win Battles with Kanayo O Kanayo as New Movie Gets 11 Imo Nominations
Ghanaian actor Kwadwo Nkansah Lil Win is battling legendary Nigerian actor, Kanayo O Kanayo and two others for the Best Supporting Actor (Male) category role in the IMO International Film Festival in Nigeria.
The 2024 nominations featured the Ghanaian comic actor with his latest movie ‘A Country Called Ghana’ getting over ten nominations.
The nominations are Best Screen Play, Best Feature, Best Sound, Best Make-up, Best Production Design, Best Cinematography, Best Costume, Best Director, among others.
This year’s award scheme will take place from July 25 to 27.
The movie, ‘A Country Called Ghana’, was directed by Frank Fiifi Ghabin with Nkansah as the executive director and features stars like Ramsey Nouah, Charles Awurum, and Victor Osuagwu, popularly known as ‘Awilo Sharp Sharp,’ Paa George, Sweet Mimi, and others.
This is yet another refreshing news for Lil Win, who recently found himself in deep trouble after his unregistered branded car, with which he was undertaking a regional tour promoting the premiere of the movie, killed a three-year-old boy.
The Kumawood star was arraigned at the Asokore Mampong District Court on June 3, 2024, and charged with dangerous driving, negligently causing harm and the use of an unregistered branded car.
He postponed subsequent movie premieres in other regions in memory of the three-year-old, but announced few days ago that they will resume at the end of this month.
The Imo International Film Festival (ImoIFF) is a platform for films and filmmakers around the world to inspire the love for film, cinema, and the arts; and support independent filmmakers.
The festival is created to promote the local film industry both locally and internationally and to bring all the industry stakeholders together in a more focused and structured environment.
