Mercy Aigbe is stepping into the spotlight at the 10th Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCA) with the confidence of a woman whose impact in Nollywood spans decades. Recently, the award-winning actress and filmmaker shared her excitement, pride, and gratitude ahead of the big night.

She was full of joy as she opened up about what the nomination means to her. With over 20 years of dedication to Nigerian cinema, being recognised at this point in her career holds deep meaning. “After how many years, like 20 something years, and I’m still getting this recognition, it’s really humbling,” she said, clearly emotional. This isn’t just another nomination—it’s a reminder that her work still matters and that her presence continues to inspire.

Mercy’s journey reflects years of hard work, reinvention, and passion. She has taken on many roles in the industry—from actress to producer and even businesswoman. Over the years, she has watched Nollywood evolve while actively contributing to its growth. Her influence goes beyond what happens in front of the camera. She has also helped tell stories that connect with people and has created space for new talents to emerge.

This year’s AMVCA recognition holds even more meaning because Uche Montana, who starred in Thin Line, one of Mercy’s productions, also received a nomination. “It’s double excitement for me,” she said, clearly proud. The fact that her efforts behind the scenes are also gaining attention makes this moment even more special.

As the AMVCAs draw near, Mercy Aigbe stands tall as a symbol of consistency and excellence. She’s not just attending—she’s celebrating a career built on passion, relevance, and legacy. Her nomination proves that true talent lasts. It grows, adapts, and continues to shine.
