Speaking from one of his movie sets, he said, “ It is a great honor to be nominated for these awards. I am truly humbled. We are hoping for the best. I believe I have given my all in the work I have done so far and winning these awards will continue to commemorate my efforts.” While anticipating winning the awards; Van also has more to look forward to, as he has been working tirelessly on his forth coming movie premiere for his latest project under his Sky + Orange Productions titled ‘The Hands of Time’, which stars some of the well known faces in the industry such as Nadia Buari and Kofi Adjorlolo, amongst others.
