The event which saw Nse Ikpe Etim as it’s host last year, will also have German filmmaker and Berlin film festival curator, Dorathy Wenner as the President of the AMAA Jury for 2018.
The founder of AMAA Peace Anyiam-Osigwe, added that “The interesting thing about AMAA this year is that visitors especially Africans will not struggle to have visa as all visas will be processed on arrival. We want to thank President Paul Kagame and other African leaders that are making people’s movement within our continent very easy while we call on other African countries to have Visa on arrival policy if we can’t remove visa completely.”
