And some people keep comparing her with some other nollywood actresses, just cos they started acting at the same time. Omotola is definitely the most successful and accomplished. She's way way above them all.

Who is dt? That girl dt showed up uninvited to the Lagos state hosting of the French president and still couldn't get a seat? grin omotola dines with diplomats please.

Genevieve is not even winning in Ikeja LGA, not to talk of worldwide. Only the new oscar judge owns those accolades.

I didn't even mention names but u like to argue. Stephanie Linus is way more relevant than Genevieve.

She is a member of the oscar voting board. It's a big deal, even for Hollywood actors. You get to review new movies every year and vote to decide who wins the BIGGEST HONOUR of an actors career. It means they take her seriously enough to trust her judgement, dt in itself is an honor.

It will definitely affect the Nigerian movie industry to have someone privy to their criteria and process. It will improve the quality of our cinema, for those who want that level of recognition, exposure and possible investor connections. I see a lot of producers and directors consulting with her very soon. She's gotten more influence in the industry.

Now i see you are just some village champion that operates on local level.
Who the hell is Omotola where Genevieve is, how many followers does she have on Instagram and twitter, when Genevieve tweets or uploads on Instagram the whole world stands still. Genevieve has the highest number of endorsements than any Nigerian movie actor male and female. Genevieve has once featured in Oprah Winfrey show which Omotala in her wildest dreams cannot appear. Genevieve has featured in most Hollywood movies that's why she is called African Halle Berry. I can go on and on and on.
When you come to Africa screenplay Geneveive is what comes to mind. Mercy Johnson's role model, Regina Daniel's mentor and role model etc...
Who is Omotala the local champion that is known only in Nigeria you are telling me about Oscar. mcteeew!! Oscar judge ko Oscar attorney ni.
Genevive's achievements in the movie world will dwarf Omotala and her family put together.

We are talking about Oscar panel, the most prestigious acting body in the world, u are talking instagram.

We are not talking about journalists interviews. If it is by dt one, you should be comparing genevieves oprah interview with omotola being one of TIMEs 100most influential people in the world. You can decide who is more credible between TIME magazine and the Oprah show.

When Genevieve is recognized by the academy for anything, I'll take this rant seriously. grin

Oscars is another award created for white people by white people who include a few black people and give them 'minority awards' to make them feel good about themselves and relevant. It is an avenue for black people to feel indebted to the nice white people who have found them 'worthy' to sit amongst them.

Most black people have long given up on the 'fairness' of the Oscars.....i mean, socially conscious black people. There is a standing joke that a black woman can only win an Oscar if she sleeps with a white man in a movie.

Black people need to get a sense of self-worth and stop dancing about whenever their white 'massas' give them something to appease their pint-sized ego.

This her new role will do as much for Nollywood as Obama's presidency did for Africa.

Mr Man Genevieve is way beyond Omotala and dont give me that Oscar panel crap as if she is the only African or even Nigerian invited if you investigate properly, just because she is celebrating hers online doesnt mean she is the only one cos as far as i'm aware She was listed among other 928 members that were invited this year. The Academy topped last year’s record of 774 new members as it invited 683 members in 2016 and 322 in 2015. The Academy typically announces a list of invitations every year and has decided to expand its membership to 9,200 stems bolstering its ethnic and female representation following criticisms over its predominantly white, male membership so its no big deal these days as they inculcated the formula of expanding their horizon to only accommodate Africans and blacks most probably because of the success of BlackPanther movie i guess.

On a lighter mood Genevieve is a brand the whole world easily relates to from Asia to Europe to America down to Africa than Omotala the local champ reasons..


1.Genevieve started her acting career before Omotola. She made her debut in 1987 in the TV soap opera Ripples at the age of 8.

2.She was the first to get international recognition when she was described as the ‘Juliet Roberts of Africa’ by Oprah Winfrey in 2003.


3.She has a more successful relationship with corporate Nigeria. Deals with Lux, Range Rover, Etisalat, MUD, and her own fashion line St. Genevieve makes her a very successful brand in business than Omotola.

4.Both actresses have national honours- but Genevieve was the first to receive hers. She was awarded the Order of the Federal Republic in 2011.

I have decimated you with facts but you cant help but perambulate like a goat with knife on its throat.
What are you calling local achievements, is it Lux or Range Rover which one??
My friend our people say a man who does not know who is greater than him is still a baby.
Where Genevieve stands Omotala can not stand.
Have you checked her massive Estate? that is local too right?.

BTW Omotala is not the only Nigerian invited by Oscar so stop your noise already. People are winning the main Oscar awards while just a member of panel invitee is jumping up and down, there is no contender for Oscar award that is a panel member, that one is a reward for retirees. grin grin

Genevieve has too much class and swagg to be toiled with, she is an already insured brand.

If ur 1st statement isn't international, I don't know what is. undecided Genevieve is her role model for what exactly? An accomplished Career or family? Both actresses have had endorsements from multinational companies.

Omotola edges out these older actresses because of her philanthropy and UN work which made her relevant on the speaking circuit. Whether u like it or not this has made her very influential and open doors for her, way above her peers, which is my point. Some of them don't even have active endorsements anymore. She still does, and gets invited to speak at their events, despite not acting regularly.

I'm not saying she's the best actress in Nigeria btw.
