Nigerian comedian Bovi and South African actress Nomzamo Mbatha recreate a viral moment associated with Nollywood actors Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham during the 2026 Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCA). Multiple outlets report that the duo staged a reenactment of the well-known “snub” scene, prompting social media reactions and attention around the event.
The Punch describes the development as a video recreation featuring Bovi and Mbatha drawing on the earlier viral interaction involving Akindele and Abraham. Vanguard similarly reports that Bovi Ugboma and Nomzamo Mbatha recreate the moment at AMVCA, and that the appearance leads to public discussion. Both accounts frame the recreation as entertainment related to a previously circulated clip, rather than reporting a new dispute. The reports focus on the recreated scene, the participants involved, and the audience reaction around the AMVCA ceremony.
