Faces we've missed I

Nollywoood, being Africa’s largest movie industry has seen and recorded a huge number of talented people as Nollywood actors and actresses.  These few, though not out of lime light,  but we might just say have gone out of circulation in the make- believe industry as they hardly feature in movies of late and we've all really missed seeing them on our screen.

 Genevieve Nnaji:
Genevieve got it all, her fashion sense is highly rated in the industry. She knows how to combine her outfits from head to toe. She started as an unknown actress, but today, she has become one of the most celebrated thespians in Africa.
Just in October 2014, She relaunched her fashion label, St. Genevieve.

Rita Dominic
Some says she is a fashion diva while others refers to her as sophisticted Rita but the truth is, the list of nollywood most fahionable actresses will never be complete without the name "Rita Dominic". she is one of the most stylish Nollywood actress.
Her red carpet outfits either at movie premieres, award shows or concerts always give her an outstanding look.

As much as we enjoy the faces we are seeing now, the truth is we really miss these faces. Watch out for more next week
