#BeLikeNgoziChallenge: Nigerians recreate Okonjo-Iweala's outfits on social media


There's a trending fashion challenge in honour of Iweala's WTO appointment. Seen it yet?

Nigerians celebrate Okonjo Iweala with the #BeLikeNgoziChallenge

The world, Nigerians in particular, is celebrating Ngozi Okonjo Iweala's remarkable appointment as the new Director General [DG] of the World Trade Organisation [WTO].

Iweala, a former Finance minister in Nigeria, was on Monday, February 15, 2021 confirmed as the first ever woman and African to be the Director General of the WTO.

Nigerians are taking the celebration up a notch, and with an Internet fashion challenge created in honour of the Nigerian economist.

The idea of the #BeLikeNgoziChallenge is simple. Just replicate the veteran’s trademark outfit - an African print blouse, and a headgear styled in her trademark fashion. You get cool points if you add eye glasses.

These are the best entries so far:

She's better 100x than Bubu

.More....

You see the Okon in Okonjo, it tells you Akwa Ibom people have a share in her success story.

I pray she doesn't get corrupted by the mind games and power play cos those people that control the world, hmmm...

Most will prefer to be like Mercy Eke, Regina or Nollywood actresses.
She made her name and announced her family while some mumus are praying for future rich men to come their ways.

No be to dress like her na to get sense join am..na so so nack and money full Nigerian girls head..

southniyikaye:
instead of them to emulate her progress, charisma and intelligence, they are busy emulating her dress sense. No wonder most of them are Senseless and have nothing in their head except urgent things like 2k

Na from clap we dey take enter dance. Maybe they will emulate her giant strides someday.

It's better than emulating BBnaija girls.

My love for this momma is boundless
There should be a NgoziOkonjoIweala day I swear
Always making us proud
Wahala for those Against educating the girl child

Don't stop at just copying her attire.

Copy the way she used her brain, her spirit of excellence and focus.

That her dress sense is unique!


She is the real definition of slay queen

This woman is giving me Joy

When will they start #Be like Elon musk
Na that one I go compete for

Nobody will ever get that her head tie....lai lai.

Nice one

This is one of the best woman to emerge from Nigeria to the world. despite the current challenges in the country, she is a reason to be proud of Nigeria.

They? Who have you emulated yourself? Or your genitals are to heavy for you to emulate her yourself? Dude, this is decent fun and there is nothing wrong with it. The WTO boss dresses not just decently but also in a consistent manner and these women, in a bid to show their admiration for her, decided to have fun by showcasing her styles, and you're here ranting as if you're better than anyone. The fact that this set of ladies acknowledge and appreciate NOI's success is enough to tell they're inspired by her and there's absolutely nothing wrong in demonstrating that in any way they want.

The way you guys rush to criticize and rubbish everything the ladies do only make you sound brainless, insecure and toxic. You called them unprintable names for the silhouette challenge cause it was "indecent" (even though both genders did that) and you've already started again for this one. You don't know these people personally and having harmless fun online doesn't imply they aren't trying their best in their respective endeavours. I'm sure if this was football related, it would have been awesome. How can anyone grow if you don't give them a breathing space?

These ones motivate you without speaking or asking for a registration fee.

Awon oloriburuku motivational olosho that one mugu who abandoned his family along with his senses built house for, will not let us rest with half baked motivational quotes & half naked pics!

Iweala for Nigeria president 2023.

Like for Iweala and share for Tinubu

I wonder what is holding that headtie that it never falls

What I see cannot be put into writing so I will remain mute on this copy cat issue.

Very Nice

She made us all proud. May God Bless Her for making us proud....
