"Dear my Sis @officialsarahmartins , He wasn’t nominated in any category.. Plus he never submitted any movie for screening. AMVCA is 12years my dear Sis, I am sure they have nothing against YUL. Yul is good! Like very God! But he needs “intentional focus” . By this I mean, the kind of movies he features in, and his kind of PR. As a Strategic Comm/PR fellow, there are two reasons why people will have you on their movie set amongst others: 1. You are good and can fit the role 2. The PR around your brand will increase the visibility of the movie Bonus Point: Your social capital! You might know people and yet lack ability to keep relationships. This is not a walk-in-the Park. It is an intentional journey. With these points of mine, AMVCA got nothing on Yul. He will be fine🙏."
