That evening, Nollywood took home 13 of the 27 awards, with veteran actors like Justus Esiri being honored for their work, while the Best Director prize went to Niyi Akanni for his film "Heroes and Zeroes".

These events were not just about handing out trophies; they were powerful statements of a maturing industry ready to take its place on the global stage.
