Ramsey Nouah's expensive joke at AMAA

Ramsey Nouah whose death rumour went viral on the Internet last week, eventually shocked his haters when he made a graceful appearance at the 13^th edition of the prestigious Africa Movie Academy Awards,AMAA, which held last Saturday night at Eko Hotels, Lagos.

The handsome dude sporting designer's blazer on white bold tie walked the red carpet with gaiety. But that's not the story. Rather , the story is the expensive joke he cracked while presenting an award.

Presenting the award, the star of '76'movie who was nominated for the Best Actor in a leading role award, but lost the same to his Tunisian counterpart, Jahwar Soudani (The Last of Us: Tunisia) jokingly said, 'Lagos State is the only state in the country that is supporting the creative industry.” Realizing what the statement would cost him, the actor quickly muttered, “I hope other states would not kill me for this.”Whether he meant what he said, or not, the truth is that he has spoken his mind.
