Forbes Africa Magazine is calling for nominations for its debut '40 Most Influential Celebrities In Africa' list. To nominate, please go here
You people should sha make sure you nominate my Genevieve. You sha like to look for trouble, Linda...lol. And don't forget Omo Sexy and Ms Funmi Iyanda...
I'm influential and you know it. Jus cos I live in England don't mean I shouldn't be on that list. Linda, Linda, Linda how many times I called you? Pull your ear. Oya, talk to your illuminati friends to put my phuckin name on that phuckin list, NOW :)
who cares about these pple men Gennie no reach person wey i go dey waste time nominate i rather nominate agama lizard than her... schew gbe oshi kuro jor..... lol ! moi bhad...
Funmi Iyanda Yes + Influential. Abike Dabiri. Yes + Influential Genevieve and Omotola ????? what and who exactly have they influenced besides working for their money and playing their role as celebrated actresses. When you say Influential it means someone or something who's impacted the life of an individual. Funmi Iyanda, Abike Dabiri, and a few others I'll say has definitely impacted humanity with their selfless act of inate will without recourse.
As for Genevieve et-all[Dont get me wrong I'm a big Gene fan] but i dont see how and where she's impacted anyone save for doing her """overly""" celebrated job in the name of Fame . SELAH!!!
hahahhahaha!! Linda biko leave me, now i see y sme1 said u r being sentimental towards Genny & never bashing her, cos u like her..Lolz!!! anywayz she's our own ,so wuld most def.nominate her..
Shame on you Linda. Na only Genny wey dey do things for naija? shame. There are other actors who are actually touching lives and making impact. or are you hoping one day that she becomes your lesbian partner?
Genevieve and Omotola a "no no", It is true they are celebrities but they are definately not influencial. Aside from acting, gracing the front cover of magazines, getting advert deals and appearing on the red carpet, I cannot remember them for anything they have done to influence their communities.
Funmi Iyanda is a force that cannot be ignored any day, she's been able to make a difference in so many lives.
which Omosexy abeg oh Genevieve all the way. she has reality worked on her image and PR. Omosexy still has a lot of work to do...Omosexy if you're reading this "IMAGE IS KEY IN SHOWBIZ"
Pastor Adeboye, Pastor Kumuyi, David Oyedpeo, Tunde Bakare, Chris Oyakhilome, Chris Okotie, Genevieve Nnaji, Funmi Iyanda, Rita Dominic, AY, Basket Mouth, Tuface, Dbanj.
Linda without you telling me whom to vote for,i have already voted Genevieve Nnaji, she commands respect in Nollywood. I'll vote for her anytime any day
Oh please...people this not about you or your bad belle for these girls. This is not even about who has put money in people's pockets or preached the gospel or awakened the dead. This is simply about people who have had an influence in the minds and lives of people especially the young ones and youths. Before any of these women (especially Genevieve) no one wanted to be a professional actress. But all that has changed. I think Genevieve brought a good amount of dignity, class and panache to the industry and as our own AND A FELLOW WOMAN, we should be proud and support what is good. If you have any other actress in mind that fits the profile then by all means vote for the person, but don't just sit there and insinuate that actors and actresses do not qualify to be in the list just because they are not making speeches daily about the economy. Everyone has a role to play in the society and I believe the movie industry has done a good job of portraying a humane side to Nigeria and Nigerians, making foreigners want to take a closer look. DON'T YOU AGREE?
Please vote for Nonhle THEMA. She has infuenced thousands of Africans (on Twitter). The result...lowered IQs and distaste for fame. Especially (un)known people like Thema.
Genny gets my vote.genny le mi a dibo fun.omotola still needs to work harder to become as influential as genny.but hey linda are u in love with genny or what;)
i really dont understand the hype about genevieve,as far as am concerned she is a glorified prostitute who has done nothing to impact in the lives of other people.i cant remember hearing that genevieve owns a business which requires employee of labour..and the recent gist am hearing is that she is a illuminati member...abeg i give ma vote to FUNMI IYAND,ABIKE DABIRI..anyday anytime .shikena!!!!!!!!!
Guys, being influential is different from being popular. Please don't screw things up. Genny and Omotola are popular NOT influential. Please vote wisely..
Vote for DAME PATIENCE GOOD LUCK JONATHAN. Reason:
"While on a hospital visit to see the victims of the UN bombing, Dame Patience Jonathan commended the Doctors and Nurses for 'responding to treatment'!!!
Abeg omotola has influenced people with her orphanage projects. check on youtube sha if you are in doubt As for the person that said genny influenced people to join the industry before genny there was omotola. so omotola has been in that industry longer than your genny so pls accord respect to whom respect is due! personally i dont see any project your genny has handled!
@BLACKKNIGHT lmaooo. Are u like really serious? Ewooo! please can you tell me where to find the exact words, like the newspaper or something? I can't laugh right now, my ass is already out with the first laughter burst. Heheehheee.
Pips if the truth be told, I know one man who is very influential North, South, East and our very own West Africa..his name is Pastor Chris Oyahkilome. Not that he will care for any of these, so don't bring out ur guns for my pwetty head. Lol
Shame on sum of U̶̲̥̅̊ just throwing shade @Genny nd Omo T... Wen forbes compile such a list, popularity is obviously considered...influence nd fame works hand in hand...U̶̲̥̅̊ say genny is not influential aii?...hw many times hv U̶̲̥̅̊ actually clicked on a post just cos her name is mentioned??...hw many times hv U̶̲̥̅̊ seen a movie U̶̲̥̅̊ wldn't mormally watch just cos she's in d poster...my dear that U̶̲̥̅̊ r even commentin here it shows just hw influential she is...they dnt need to be miss jolie nd adopt all d poor naija kids or oprah nd share all their money to make them influential...so y'all shld stop bein naïve nd vote U̶̲̥̅̊ you will instead of talking trash...FYI Genny is influential nd U̶̲̥̅̊ all will DEAL!
i vote for Kanu Nwankwo he is the only celeb i ve seen that has done something for naija that is worth talking abt all the others care abt only themselves.
