Omotola Jalade Ekeinde ( Omosexy as her fans call her, the nick name given to her by her pilot husband Captain Mathew Ekeinde). To me she is what you would call the perfect "African Super Woman". She is absolutely gorgeous, she has a killer body, she is highly fashionable, she is very talented and above all, she is intelligent. In early 2000, Zambia became exposed to the Nigerian movies (famously now known as Nollywood movies). I was only a teenage then and the likes of Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, Rita Dominic and Genevieve Nnaji were my favourite Nollywood actresses and i watched almost all the movies that featured them. I remember Blood Sisters where she acted with the also beautiful Genevieve Nnaji. Games Women Play, Rescue, Lost Kingdom to mention but a few. Omotola has actually appeared in more than 300 Nollywood movies since she started acting in 1995. She is also a singer and an ex-model.
Omotola has been my favorite of all the Nigerian actresses simply because she is a very smart woman and she has used her fame to help and contribute to the African continent. She is an activist. She speaks out about social issues affecting various African countries. She is also an ambassador for the United Nations and an activist with Amnesty International. She has also worked with Save The Children UK and Enough is Enough. Last year, she was named one of the most influenced people top 100 by Time Magazine. That's the way to do it girl!
