Uzee Usman has sparked online reactions after a post he shared appeared to question the essence of the Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards, following the outcome where his close associate Funke Akindele reportedly left without a win.
In a social media post, the actor wrote:
“the meaning of AMVCA AFRICA MAGIC VIEWERS CHOICE AWARDS? Hmmmmmmm… 🐒”
The comment has since been interpreted by many users as a subtle critique of the awards, with some suggesting he was implying the event largely celebrates productions that fit the “Africa Magic standard” rather than strictly reflecting broader viewer preference.
His post quickly generated debate online, especially among fans of Funke Akindele, whose film did not win any category despite multiple nominations.
Although Uzee Usman did not directly mention the organisers or the voting process, his remark has been widely seen as an indirect reaction to the results of the ceremony.
