#AMVCA2025: Mercy Aigbe, Omoni Oboli & Ini Dima-Okojie Among Nominees for Best Supporting Actress

From strength to stillness, the women in Best Supporting Actress at #AMVCA2025 are holding it down.

Supporting roles often carry the weight of a story—sometimes more than the leading roles themselves. At this year’s AMVCA, the nominees for Best Supporting Actress have proven that power isn’t measured by screen time but by impact. These women have taken their moments and transformed them into something unforgettable.

From established stars to rising talents, each nominee has brought something unique to the table. Whether it’s strength in vulnerability, an undeniable presence, or an emotional depth that adds layers to the film. These performances may not always be the loudest, but they stay with us long after the final scene.

Supporting roles are often the heart of a film, the glue that binds the story and the characters together. This year’s nominees embody that truth, reminding us that it’s not about how much time you have on screen, but how much you leave behind.

Let’s take a closer look at the women who’ve made an impact in the Best Supporting Actress category at the 11th AMVCA.

Meg Otanwa’s performance as ISP Simbiat in ‘Inside Life‘ is nothing short of captivating. As the fierce villain, she easily balances strength with vulnerability, creating a character that lingers long after the credits roll.

The role pushed her to speak Yoruba, adding an extra layer of challenge, but Meg embraced it, bringing Simbiat to life in a way only she could.

Her Best Supporting Actress nomination at the AMVCA 2025 feels more than earned. Whether in ‘October’ 1 or ‘For Maria: Ebun Pataki,’ Meg has a knack for infusing authenticity and heart into every role, and Inside Life is no exception.
