Amid the attention generated by the outfit, the former BBNaija housemate also proposed the creation of a special entrepreneurs-focused segment within the AMVCA lineup.
In an open letter addressed to MultiChoice Group and Africa Magic, she wrote: “Just a thought, since we already have the AMVCA Cultural Day and other special events before the main award night, would it be possible to create a special night dedicated to entrepreneurs in Nigeria to showcase their brands, creativity, and impact?
“Imagine AMVCA Nigerian Entrepreneurs Night. Massive, classy, and inspiring.”
