Best Actor in a Comedy (Movie/ TV Series)

Samuel “Broda Shaggi” Perry – Dwindle

Broda Shaggi, as he's fondly called, goes into a straight tussle with Deyemi Okanlawon for this one. After becoming famous for his Instagram skits where he only used to play an exaggerated and overenthusiastic thug, Perry would go on to try his hands at singing and acting in feature films. Four years in Nollywood and he has earned himself a podium finish for the first time. Can he take it all the way though? He is the funniest actor in the category and his role in Dwindle gives him a loud shout.
