The Best of Nollywood, BON awards, which? was held last Sunday at the TBS auditorium in Lagos have come and gone despite the somewhat shoddy preparation for it.
Hosted by actor, Nonso Diobi and for MBGN queen, Sylvia Nduka, the duo did their best to entertain the audience amidst the hiccups encountered at the event, which was organised by Seun Oloketuyi, publisher of Best Of Nollywood Magazine.
