Excited to share that I’ll be part of the international judging panel for the Global Entertainment Awards 2025. The @globalentertainmentawards are all about celebrating entertainment marketing across Cinema, Streaming, TV, and Games. It’s a thrilling showcase of culture and creativity. What I love most is that everyone enters on equal footing, and the judging is all about merit. It’s a fantastic chance to shine a light on emerging talent and help winners level up their creative skills. If you’ve got the talent, don’t hold back—show it off to a global audience and enter the #globalentertainmentawards2025

Thank you for the recognition @filmoneng Proud to be listed here among the greats. More to come🎉⭐️⭐️

Some people are simply LOVE in human form… and that is you. 🤍 The warmest heart. The safest space. The sweetest soul. The kind of person who babies everyone around her with so much care, softness, loyalty, and intention. When you love people, you love them fully and anyone lucky enough to have you in their life knows they have someone who will always be there for them. Your smile can light up a room, your laughter can make any space come alive, and your presence carries a warmth that is impossible to explain. You are bold, fierce, passionate, deeply gifted, entrepreneurial, and such a brilliant actress, but beyond all your achievements, it’s your heart that makes you unforgettable. You are comfort. You are joy. You are the quiet after a long day. You are home to so many people. I genuinely thank God for your life and for the love you pour so effortlessly into the world. Happy birthday to one of the most beautiful souls I know. May this new year return every bit of love, kindness, and light you give to others back to you endlessly. 🤍 Love you hun @blessingjessicaobasi ❤️❤️❤️🌺🌺🌺🌺

*Repost or share please* I couldn't attend @womenmakerseries this year so @wynokpapi , Founder, sent me this video gushing about some bags @eliz_bags_and_accessories and how a lady who didn't even win the grand prize reacted. I saw the video and just felt her tears, pain and blessing to just be recognised like it says- you are doing alright. I then found her on IG and bought 3 bags. So please donate/sponsor @womenmakerseries next year to help MORE women like this and more money given as prizes to scale. 2nd runner up was N200k, let's make it N1.5m next year. If you can't donate, please repost this video so Eliz bags can grow her business and Winnie can find new partners.

My father was a man of great kindness, always there for people. Today, on his remembrance day, I honor him by recognizing the incredible network of support that has uplifted me. The past two years of WMS have been a testament to this support, and I am profoundly thankful for every bit of encouragement you’ve offered. Women Makers 2026 came together in the most beautiful way, from the powerful keynote by @tayo.kd , to our panel sessions, art therapy with @inileye , fireside chat with the Head of Lagos Innovates (LSETF), @lsetf @lagosinnovates business assistance room and the pitchathon with @zedcrest . Every moment reminded me why this matters. A room full of women showing up, sharing, learning, building, and pouring into each other in the most genuine way. Many thanks to the Lagos State Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture for endorsing and supporting us. To my family and friends, thank you for holding me up in ways I can’t always explain. To our delectable hosts, panelists, speakers, sponsors and supporters, thank you for believing in this vision and helping us bring it to life. To my amazing team… I don’t even have enough words. Thank you for your sacrifice, your long hours, your belief, and your commitment to building something bigger than all of us. You showed up fully, every single time. And to our Makers, thank you. Thank you for trusting us, for showing up with open hearts, and for already thinking about how to give back to other women. That’s the spirit of this community, and it’s what makes it so special. Seeing the joy on everyone’s faces and hearing the feedback has been priceless. A 97% 5-star rating from attendees is truly incredible, and a reminder that we’re building something meaningful. What a day. What a community. 💜 This is only the beginning. All my love💜 Please support a maker today by buying from their store on our website.

GRATITUDE This lady is taking a moment to step out of my worry box to say thank you. As a first born, I don’t like asking for help but having the right people around you, constantly pushing you, does wonders. When they say ‘I support you’ , there is no doubt. If you have such people in your life, give ‘em a big hug today or a virtual one if far away. ❤️❤️❤️

Another year…. What started as a vision is now a growing movement. Last year, Women Makers Series brought together incredible women building businesses, brands, and bold ideas and we’re just getting started. Grateful for the continuous endorsement and support from the Lagos State Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture as we continue to create meaningful spaces for women to connect, grow, and thrive. Women Makers Series 2026 is coming. March 28. If you’re a woman building something… this is your room.

Happy International Women’s Day 💐 This year’s theme, “Give to Gain,” reminds us that growth is rarely a solo journey. Every time a woman shares knowledge, opens a door, offers support, or uplifts another woman, we strengthen the entire ecosystem. At Women Makers Series, we believe that the most powerful communities are built on generosity — of ideas, opportunities, mentorship, and collaboration. When women give their time, their wisdom, and their courage to build and support one another, we all gain stronger businesses, richer creativity, and a future shaped by possibility. Today we celebrate every woman who is building, creating, leading, and making space for others along the way. Here’s to women who give, women who grow, and women who rise together. ✨ #InternationalWomensDay #GiveToGain #womenmakersseries
