We are more than grateful for your votes on the best dressed actress. At first, we had a long list but we had to drop some names for obvious reasons. Through votes, we shortlisted the names to three.The names are Omotola Jolade-Ekehinde,Rita Dominic and Genevieve Nnaji. Aside the votes so far gathered from readers of http://www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com/, I also went out of my way to get journalists,advertising executives and celebrities to vote on the contest. The target was 40 Nigerian celebrities and 40 Nigerian journalists, who cover brands and advertising, entertainment, fashion and style.
I assured all that voted that their votes would not be revealed individually, rather it would be a collective one. I went through the submissions of the various voters and I have been collating the result with the help of some of my friends.
Those that have so far voted included Mr. Ayo Shonaiya, a producer who is resident in the UK, Mr. Steve Babaeko a top advertising executive in Nigeria, Mr. Kunle Afolayan, actor and producer in Nigeria, Mr. Ayeni Adekunle, a top entertainment journalist in Nigeria, Miss Nonye Iwuagwu, another leading entertainment writer with Punch Newspapers,Mr.Uche Olehi of Encomium Magazine, Bella Naija a top style and entertainment blogger, Tosyn Bucknor, another media executive and event manager per excellence,Oge, a top presenter on Brila FM has also voted,Stella Dimoko Korkus of Encomium magazine has also sent in her votes... pardon me the list is just too long.Most of them voted through my facebook, email, phone calls and text messages.
Right now, I am talking to some fashion designers so that the election won't be rigged at all.
From what has so far been gathered, Rita Dominic seems to be leading, closely followed by Genevieve Nnaji.Somehow, the story seems to be changing from what we earlier bargained.How? Alot of people are calling for more names to be added to the list and more time before the result is announced. Ebube Nwagbo,Dakore Egbuson and Rukki Sanda are some of the names that have been consistently mentioned.If you think they desrve a place on the list please let us know. Meanwhile you can still cast your votes.
Already, we have wonderful prizes in form of expensive make ups and clothes from a lady I will simply call KU in the United States of America. Pearl Shillingford, another person that deals with top hair products for celebrities has also partnered with us from Canada (She is not even a Nigerian but she is hooked to what she reads about our celebrities) .You can visit her website: www.eyecandylacewigs.com
The great thing is that someone is also going to win wonderful gifts. For instance, wonderful dresses would be sent directly by KU to the reader we choose anywhere in the world.
The winner would be announced later this month. Please, click on the link below to view comments and cast your votes http://niyitabiti.blogspot.com/2008/06/so-who-is-hottest-in-nollywood.html

ReplyDeleteRita what? please Rita is out of the question, her dressing are too exposing they are not decent enough,amongst all of them Genevieve leads bcos there is a little decency in her dressing.
ReplyDeleteI agree with my friend I wonder what man wants to put Ini Edo in his house as wife anyway for some men its about bedmatics.....
ITS DIFFICULT TO REALLY DETERMNE WHO DRESSES BEST AMONG THESE ACTRESSES BCOS APART FROM MOVIES, WE DONT GET TO SEE THEM OFTEN IN PUBLIC EVENTS..SO WHATS THE CITERIAL? MOVIES OR REAL LIFE DRESSING?
ReplyDeleteLove ur blog, really cool...
ReplyDeleteI’m sorry “Gist” godfather, as much as I like Rita Dominic, I must say Genevieve is the best dressed Nigerian actress. I was in shock when I saw your title that Rita leads in your best dressed category; therefore, I’ve been forced to vote.
ReplyDeleteIt is true that Genny has had her share of bad wardrobe days that required serious fashion police arrest; however, I must say she has a very elegant taste and class in her choice of clothing that no one can deny. As a sister of both her and Rita, I must say she has done very well and makes us all proud in her carriage and her manner of dressing on set and out. So, I vote Genevieve Nnaji – don’t send any prizes, Niyi, just contributing my 2cents.

no need to include the extra names (dakore , ebube, etc)... they are ok but not near the main list .. rita is consistent and i like her dressing but some times she is a little bit over . I will cast my vote to Genevieve

Hmm..Oga Niyi..it seems like Ruki's name may have been added by u o...So are we supposed to be comparing ruki sanda with the rest of these ladies who have made their marks in the industry? Being colorful,(which describes Ruki's fashion) has nothing to do with the elegance, composure, charisma and class that Rita, Gene and Omotola's dressing exude.....
ReplyDeletePlease let her remain in class and learn from them...GIVE HER TATOO GIRL AWARD...!!
I see as usual Geneveive fans are waking up late to start voting when it is over.Rita or Dakore should take it. Anyway Genevieve will be in jail in the next 3 months so she will not be needed.
ReplyDeleteDont usually do this ...but i cant help but comment ....Guys if you know 'STYLE', you'll know Rita Dominic has got it ....the rest of them are coming behind her ... - and this is coming from a Genevieve fan
ReplyDeleteEwooh! Nwa nke aturuocha!
