In this exclusive interview with MARY NNAH , he shares his thoughts on the latest trends, reveals his styling secrets, and unveils his ambitious plans to leave a lasting legacy in the industry Can you share what inspired you to become a model and style influencer? I like to say that the entertainment industry found me, and not the other way around. The style influencer part came organically from people asking questions about my style, where I source my outfits, as well as my hair and skincare routine. I didn’t set out to be a model or style influencer; I wanted to become an actor.



However, I found that I could use my platform to share messages that are important to my generation and effect positive change in the lives of my audience. What would you describe as the biggest trend in the evolution of fashion in Nigeria over the past decade? Today, the fashion industry is increasingly being driven by the street and not the runway as it used to be. There is a trend towards streetwear and street casting, especially in Lagos.
