Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, who recently completed a tour of four countries on a project she is still keeping under wraps, was on Sunday announced as favourite West African actress of the Year at the Screen Nation Film and Television Award, which held at the Indigo O2 Arena in the UK. The award ceremony was hosted by Angelica Bell and Michael Underwood.
In winning this year's award, Omotola beat out other nominees such as Jackie Appiah, Mercy Johnson, Genevieve Nnaji, Ama K Abebrese and others. The award further confirms the international brand following of the actress who is also an ambassador of the United Nations and Amnesty International.
Her international expedition has taken her to countries like Liberia and Sierra Leone on charitable ventures. Her charitable ventures earned her the United Nations and Amnesty International ambassador and an honorary citizen of Liberia; she took to the runway to help draw attention to hunger in some African countries.
The Screen Nation film and TV Awards is a televised event, which takes place in October during Black History Month and combines the glamour of international movie stars alongside British talent. The awards ceremony - dubbed by the media as the ‘Black BAFTAs' - brings together actors, actresses, directors and filmmakers from the UK and international film and TV industry
