wheewww!!! she'll finally get rid of that hair!

obinna said...

is this the same arik that is owing its workers, fuel suppliers and hotels? why increasing over heads when your struggling to meet your basic obligations to staff and suppliers? How about they try to keep to flight schedules

Agbani and airplanes? lol, maybe she'll be in a commercial or something.
and i agree with obinna, didn't something about Arik Air just come out a month ago? they should get their priorities straight.

I'm too lazy to check, but is it true that Arik Air is owned by some Portuguese guy?

ARIK NEEDS TO CENTRE MORE ON IMPORTANT ISSUES; IMPROVING THEIR SERVICES AND CUSTOMER RELATIONS. OF WHAT GOOD IS THIS GOING TO BE. HOW DOES IT IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF OUR EXPEREINCE ON ARIK AIR. I DONT GET THE CONNECTION AGBANI AND ARIK , WHAT IS SHE GOING TO TELL US ABOUT ARIK THAT WOULD IMPROVE THEIR REPUTATION. PHEEEEEW RUBBISH . WASTE OF MONEY

You people should advise her. Its not by force. Eating once a week is very bad!

joicee said...

Congrats to you.. but damn see how skinny she looks ....someborri pls throw her a hamburger already!

wivesroundtable said...

Do models NEED to get skinnier and skinnier in order to maintain their career? Just asking o!

Mbanu, this is not a good picture of Agbani at all, she looks malnourished, not just skinny.
But like others have said, I can't believe this is Arik's priority, a new brand ambassador! When a 7am flight doesn't take off until 9:30 or sometimes not at all! Arik needs to get its mind right.

YOU HAVE ALL SAID IT ALL....
I remember when agbani was beautiful...now all i see is bones....

Does this babe now live in Nigeria? Aril air would not have been 1st choice. She needs to relax on the diet, she looks unhealthy skinny.
Don't get how staff don't do a walk out after not getting paid for 3 months, it's ok to protest.

all this brand ambassadors, what do they actually do? its just a one time exposure, they dont actually work hard enough to genereate income up to what they get paid sef. kmt

Anonymous said...

another back asswards move.

Ch5335ng said...

She's getting paid, so there goes? Hope she clears the cheque quickly too.

Arik was just voted the worst airline in Nigeria and Aruremi Johnson is a chief monkey (he calls his staff monkeys.)

Aruremi Johnson (the owner from Rivers State.) Ah, his story is too long...

She will get free First Class Tickets to London and New York, if and only if they will continue with those slots.

Somebody, anybody, please force feed this babe. She looks like a refuge off Somalia. This is naija and we like them with a bit of flesh abeg. Agbani, please listen to us, eat well abeg. for your own sake.

wow! Agbani looks horrible.. my goodness! give me some Toolz anyday and i am good! A full figured woman is it anyday, anytime... Please come to london , let me take you to nandos!
She looks pretty unhealthy!

@12.25pm,
Toolz is the girl.That is how God still makes them.
This Agbani girl does not even need to go to london,there is Nandos here in Lagos and Iya Ope will even do the job better on her.
This girl was my school mate years ago and i never understood what was so spectacular about her looks.

To think u actually look bigger in pics.mmmmmmm

Agbani was a miss world. Miss world I said oh!!!! Is this the best she can do??? Am not trying to be anti nigeria oh, bt dis is too low for a Miss world winner. Anyways more power to ur elbow. Sorry to your bone. Cos that's all you are made up of

Nubiangem said...

Arik!!!!Is this the solution to the problem?Agbani?Chukwu mee anyi ebele!

My story happened on the 29th of April,2011.The day of the royal wedding.A 3.30 flight to PH didn't take off until about 7.30p.m.On top of that,Arik now wanted to kill us on that flight.

Don't want to bore you reader with the gory details,but long and short of it was that we had to make an emergency landing.Emergency landing and there wasn't even a hint of a first aid box in PH airport oh,talk more of emergency response if we had eventually crashed and burst into flames...

A friend of mine sent a similar experience,enugu to Abj...where one of the engines exploded just after take off.The plane had to turn and go back to abj...where the tarmac had already been lined with ice...cos they didn't actually think the plane would make it.

Up until now...Arik used to be my favourite airline...but at the rate they are going,something is truly amiss.I'd advise that they sort themselves out,we do not need a repeat of '05 in terms of air disasters before we take action.If the accusations leveled against them in the publication that has been circulating for the past three weeks or so are tru,they should do WHATEVER is necessary to improve business.It's not like it's a free ride,and na human beings dem dey carry,not yams from Aba to Minna.

Ka chineke mezie okwu.

Femiluv said...

I'm all for being skinny if that's what you want, and I'm a skinny chick myself but this looks unhealthy.

Yeah, she needs to be skinny for haute couture blah blah, but like I said - this looks unhealthy.

You know when people face terrible hardship they dry up. Now ,how are we sure she is not facing a lot of hardship ,I mean competition is too high in the US with lots and lots of beautiful models. Just google MODEL MAYHEM and you will see millions of beautiful damsels Darego , you looked so malnourished.
Even if you have been out
job you can still afford gbegiri, amala and moi moi..... You are not getting younger.

This country and its people are very mean. Why all these beef.However,i blame this nation that constanly spends their funds on foreigners and forget their own.The indians raised their miss world to a level that the world took over. She on thesame title like ashwari but she cannot match the indian not because she is not as beautiful but because indiand packaged her for the world. Agbani you are still the most beautiful girl in the world.
