Black on black is sometimes dull, Akosua Adoma Owusu, you could have done with a bit of colour. That dress you are wearing makes u look boring and old. Anyway, congrats.
@B.B, you are so right! I guess Black on Black can be dull. I also came late to the red carpet event and this picture they took of me was after the 8 hour long ceremony so I looked pretty horrible, tired and bad. I was nervous because the announcement for Best Short Film was the first award and my main concern was more whether I would win or not and less about my red carpet attire. but I still think my dress looked on point though. I just wish they released a better photo of me. oh well.
@gaga, Belinda Effah is Nigerian, from Calabar in Cross River State, i know so cos I know her in person. There’s so much similarities btw the Calabar people’s names & Ghanian names like Edem, Essien, Otu, Ansa, Archibong are some of the names am sure both people share.
