Search for top Kenyan actors is on
FilmBiz Africa Magazine is urging fans and film industry stakeholders to vote for their favourite actors and actresses to feature in their next edition. Dubbed 'the creme de la creme of acting in Africa', the magazine will feature top 10 actors in their February edition. Some of the names on Actors.co.ke, the website that is compiling the list, include Lizz Njagah, Patriciah Kihoro and Alexandras Konstantaras.
The actor with the most votes will then be chosen and contacted for a photo shoot before tomorrow. FilmBiz Africa Magazine is a private initiative created and run by members of the Foundation for Indigent Students of Africa, a non-profit organisation in Nairobi which gives Masters degree scholarships in various fields to bright African students.
