One of such Nigerians is JUMOKE ODETOLA who is very passionate about her art and acts as a Thespian. Jumoke who made it known recently in an interview with a National Dailies that all she does for a living is acting, producing (and every legit businesses that comes with being a celebrity) has just been signed as Brand Ambassador for Portal Homes; A Real Estate Company in Nigeria with its headquarters in Abuja and Corporate Head Office in Lagos.

*CAN YOU QUIT OR FORFEIT YOUR CAREER FOR MARRIAGE?* *THE 'AGBOKOLORI' SYNDROME*

Have you ever been in a situation where you have to choose between your career and your relationship?

The cases of a partner having to quit job or career for marriage has been on the increase recently and this is always one-sided most times, the woman quits her career to keep her home, she has to be the one to sacrifice her job. There has been several debates and discussions about this but there is a trending movie on YouTube right now that mirrors the after effects to women. The title of the movie is AGBOKOLORI and I recommend that everyone especially women see it. This movie cuts across all tribes, races and ages. It is the best gift to women in 2018 and beyond. I watched the movie and I feel strongly that all women around the world MUST see it!

A NEW STAR IN TOWN

Jumoke Odetola, Actress, Model and Producer is the new rave in town now as the fair-complexioned belle stunned audience in the year 2015 with role interpretations in different movie flicks and series. From the multiple award winning Box Office movie VICTIMS, directed by Lancelot Imasuen and a unique role in a Hausa drama HAKU MAI HIKIMA, directed by Abiodun Jimoh. She also wowed everyone who watched the AMVCA-nominated movie BINTA OFEGE.

Soft-spoken and purpose-driven, Jumoke said 2015 was a warm up to the greater plans in 2016. God willing, she plans to take her game some inches higher this year as she has already two scripts for high profile Box Office movies and a lot of other movies lined up for the versatile actress.

Jumoke, presently an ambassador for Shodex Gardens hopes for more endorsement deals to come.

Jumoke Odetola never seized to impress me. In Mercy Aigbe's Victims, Jumoke was the icing on the cake of that thrilling movie. She brought a mixture of sex appeal and intrigue to the movie, two key elements in cinema projects. Way to go Jumoke Odetola.

The real 5 upcoming actresses to watch out for in nollywood. Real talents and not some boobs flashing wayward girls disguising as actresses. These five are trained, cultured and they take the arts as profession, not hobby. They are...

1. Omowunmi Dada
2. Jumoke Odetola
3. Nancy Isime
4. Collette Orji and
5. Titi Jubreel

Nollywood is highly competitive but these five had been tested at a very critical platform. They have so many credible roles to their credit. They stand out. They are the future of Nollywood.

Stay calm y'all. Just watch out for a new TV series titled: Marriage Without Borders! Starring Uche Anyamele, Jumoke Odetola, Angela Phillips etc... directed by Abiodun Jimoh. The series have answers to a lot of questions many mates in the house wanna ask. Keep a date! Watchout for the Sneak Preview on Jara. AfricaMagic Showcase. Cheers!

I have always said it, Lionel Messi is the greatest footballer of all times. It may take time for some people to realise this, but I believe it doesnt take topnotch vision to see this fact, even from a distance. Viva El Messi!

The lists are lovely but a particular actress is missing and I believe you need to research on this revelation called JUMOKE ODETOLA. She is an art to behold. Her ability to switch between a Yoruba Drama/Stage Plays and English Drama/Stage plays gives her a great edge. When reviewing Mercy Aigbe's new cinema flicks titled VICTIMS, I came across the girl and her performance was jaw-dropping. I have also seen her in TV series like FAMILY TIES, TALES OF EVE and SO WRONG, SO WRIGHT. She is also the Star actress of OGO OMO and BINTA OFEGE. The first time I saw this fair-complexion lady in KILANTA (A yoruba TV series) I almost mistook her for Omotola Jolade-Ekehinde. I think Jumoke Odetola and Omowumi Dada deserve to be on the list.
