They said it wouldn’t make sense.
They said there were already too many awards.
No sponsors. No funding. Just belief.
Years later — here we are.
This is the story behind ACA.
Built from nothing. For Africa.

Africa Choice Awards Evolves Into ACA Media — A New Era of Pan-African Creative Excellence Begins
What began as an awards platform to spotlight African talent is now stepping into a bold new dimension. The Africa Choice Awards proudly unveils its evolution into ACA Media — a full-fledged Pan-African creative media company championing African culture, talent, and stories through powerful content, digital experiences, and original productions.
Founded to celebrate Africa’s brightest, ACA Media now expands far beyond the red carpet. With a striking new identity and lion emblem symbolizing power, leadership, and cultural pride, ACA Media is building a continent-wide platform rooted in storytelling, media visibility, and creative excellence.
ACA Media now operates across five core verticals:
• Africa Choice Awards — Our flagship awards show spotlighting Africa’s most influential talent and changemakers.
• ACA Originals — Bold, exclusive content and documentary storytelling rooted in African perspectives.
• ACA Spotlight — Media coverage and interviews celebrating rising stars and culture-defining voices.
• ACA Red Carpet & Events — Premium red carpet and event coverage across Africa.
• ACA Publications — Editorial features, digital magazines, and cultural journalism for the new Africa.
“This is more than a rebrand — it’s a revolution and a movement,” said the founder of ACA Media, @theoolele . “A media house for a new Africa — powered by bold creators, iconic talent, and visionary storytelling.”
From Nigeria to South Africa, Ghana to Kenya and across Africa — ACA Media is building a network of voices shaping the next generation of African culture.
The future is now.
The culture reigns.

@mariachikebenjamin arrived at the 4th Africa Choice Awards red carpet in a look that didn’t ask for attention, it commanded it.
A celebration of African artistry, texture, and bold cultural expression. Every detail carried presence. Every step carried identity.
The 4th ACAs red carpet was more than fashion. It was Africa telling its story through style.

Command. Presence. Precision.
@ayandancwane stepped onto the 5th Africa Choice Awards stage not just as a host but as the standard.
From the red carpet to the main stage, she carried the night with elegance, control, and unmistakable authority.
This is what it looks like when grace meets responsibility.
The bar wasn’t raised… it was redefined.
