Mzansi's finest Bonang Matheba stole the show in Nigeria as co-host of the Africa Magic Viewers' Choice Awards (AMVCA).

Matheba hosted the prestigious awards with Nigerian TV and radio presenter Ik Osakioduwa in Lagos on Saturday night.  

Movies Rattlesnake – The Ahanna Story and Amina came tops with four AMVCA respectively, while best director went to Ramsey Nouah (Rattlesnake – The Ahanna Story).

But perhaps the real action was on the red carpet and Queen B slayed her emceeing duties in four outfit changes. 

Bonang Matheba

Her opening look was an ethereal pink gown by Sheyeoladeio. The high-neck and pink fur finishing oozed mystical creature.

Toke Makinwa 

The Nigerian radio personality didn’t come to play. She stepped out in a fiery gown by Matopeda Atelier and was styled by Dah Mola. She definitely understood the assignment.

Uti Nwachukwu

Nwachukwu did a stellar job representing the men. He donned a floral suit by Alan Cruzer Bespoke.

Osas Ighodaro

The actor was a shimmering goddess in a sheer embellished mermaid gown by Veekee James.

Adesua Etomi

Etomi went for a simple yet elegant gown by Matopeda Atelier that had her looking like royalty.

Neo Akpofure

Akpofure brought a pop of colour in a turquoise suit made by.

Simi Drey

Déjà vu! Drey channelled Kim Kardashian in Balenciaga at the Met Gala last year, in a dramatic all-black ensemble designed by Whitney Black. The high-fashion look was finished with a bold face mask.
