13 categories have been created for the maiden edition of the Yoruba Movie Academy Awards (YMAA) which is billed to take place at the Cultural Centre, Kuto, Abeokuta next month.

Aimed at celebrating outstanding artistes in the Yoruba movie industry, the awards is bankrolled by the Ogun State government and spearheaded by Tunde Oshinibosi also known as Laface.
This list is one of the toughest I've seen in a while. For example, the nominees for the best actor and actress in lead roles are all excellent in their rights but only two (for each category) will wear the caps, let's wait till the judges decide who these caps fit.
