The Screen Nation film and TV Awards is a televised event, which takes place in October during Black History Month and combines the glamour of international
movie stars alongside British talent. The awards ceremony – dubbed by
the media as the ‘’Black BAFTAs’’ – brings together actors, actresses,
directors and filmmakers from the UK and international film and TV industry.

In
winning this year’s award, Omotola beats other nominees such as Jackie
Appiah, Mercy Johnson, Genevieve Nnaji , Ama K Abebrese and others. The
award further confirms the international brand following of the actress who is also an ambassador of the United Nations and Amnesty International. Omotola, who has been adjudged as the West African actress with the highest number of following on the internet, has been doing so much on the international scene of late.
