Congrats: Nigeria Discovers Another Super Model Oyinade Omotosho At Nigeria's Next Super Model Competition

WizKid’s and Davido’s concert this year was all about Gucci. From the Micheal Jackson inspired clothes to the t-shirts, both concerts had Gucci written all over. However, little do we know, the official model used for the official look book goes by the name Imade Ogbewi. A model belonging to the agency Isis Models, which is the organization that produces Nigeria’s Next Super Model. So when we see a winner discovered at the same competition, don’t under estimate her potential.

Each of the contestants for this year came with their unique backstories, some detailing lives of tumult, but ultimately with a sense of hope. Notable among these girls is Ngonzi Arumuku (discovered by Emmanuel Omene-Johnson), who hails from Igbanke, in Delta State.
