Meet Yvonne 'Rashida' Ekwere

 
The popular TV presenter unveiled her Yoruba alter ego named Rashida about a week ago. She said when she thought of the image for Rashida, a Fela fire dancer popped into her head, hence what you see above. Shot by Obi Somto and styled by Ugoma Adegoke of Zebra Living. Fierce!

    1. It's another aspect of oneself,another personality of you it could also mean an inseperable friend. e.g you might have a double personality the main you might be quiet while your alter ego will be the crazy down to earth type of person.

  25. @ anon 10:21 am. Rashida is commonly used by yoruba just like sulia. She got the perfect picture of fela fire dancer. I used to know one of the fela dancers called wosila she was an awesome dancer. No one stops y'all from coming up with your own alter ego

  42. Honestly, yhu guys are just tlking trash!! Beyonce doesnt have an alter-ego rather, it is nicki minaj that has alter-ego(s) infact, she has more than three, the most popular being 'roman'. Alter-egos dont mean anything at all. Its just a side of yhu daht pple dont see. Evry 1 has an alterg-ego its just that these peepz publicize theirs, its nothing really. I myself, have three wondaful alter-egos (i'm a guy) & one is gay :p

    very sad day for history and tradition. Nigeraian are ultra neo-colonizable. The one person who remembers to embrace a bit of our traditional values to the fore deserves a bit more commendation. KIm K gets all the praise heaped on her alter ego or not. This self hatred in our collective psyche totals billions of Naira anually just for brazilian weave. who gets it?

  69. When the people who started the issue of alter ego which is usually associated with criminal people like murderer are throwing it out of court saying dat there is nothing call alter ego. That people are solely responsible for their behaviour our dear naija people are now going gaga for it. Alter ego is nothing but an image created to make excuses for people behaviour especially criminally insane people. Vixen, charly boy, tonto, just want to follow d trend.

  70. Love d pix thou. Long I saw sometin dis beautiful though if she claim her alter ego is rashida, a yoruba girl, dis pix doesn't portray a yoruba girl rather it portray an igbo belle. But sha alter ego is currently a huge discuss among scholars with majority against it.
