  In this remarkable story, Adunni, the main character, depicts ambition fuelled with a burning desire to succeed despite all odds. Tales of this type still abound in Lagos, and they are portrayed in the media daily. Adunni is hailed as the poor girl with a rich mind, "Sherlock Holmes," who never stops asking intelligent questions, a child-bride, and a strong-willed girl who grew up fast due to the circumstance her parents put her through. However, she had the guts to pursue the life she wanted. - An education by any means necessary.  Adunni finally got her groove back after reading such an easy book, I could relate to the characters there. the harsh and despicable reality of Lagos till date. I would recommend this book to my friends and would love to see it turned into a film.

A Rough Diamond Turned Model Through The Lens Of Kelechi Amadi-Obi

Where are the modelling scouts when you need them? Bukola just discovered one in the person of Kelechi Amadi-Obi, the renowned photographer who saw the potentials in the street hawker in Marina, Lagos after a photo shoot with Jidenna.

"This is Bukola . Some weeks back I was shooting @jidenna on Broad street Lagos and in between takes I saw her across the street selling pillows . Had to call her and give my number. ” if you’re interested in modeling please give me a call” I said. Well she came to the studio and I called my number one MUA @bimpeonakoya and this is what we came up with. I think she will make a great model. What do you think? #africanbeauty #diamondintherough”
With the increase of beauty pageants in Nigeria, of which most of them are deemed as bogus, it is time the real modelling agencies step up on their game and start seeking out the real beauties on the streets. Well done, Kelechi for doing justice to Bukola in those photos, lets see what the international fashion houses have to say on Bukola.
