Nollywood actress and political appointee Eniola Badmus is championing Nigerian brands, urging her followers and fellow citizens to prioritize and support homegrown businesses.
In a recent Instagram post, Eniola shared photos of herself dressed in a stylish outfit by Nigerian brand BeUnique Wears. Praising the craftsmanship, she encouraged Nigerians to embrace local brands and support their growth.
It’s about time we start supporting our Naija brands. @beunique_wears made this beautiful outfit, and I love it so much. My people, kindly patronise @beunique_wears and thank me later……. @beunique_wears to the world,” she wrote.
This isn’t the first time Eniola has used her platform to inspire unity and purpose among Nigerians. A few weeks ago, she shared photos from her office in Abuja, urging Nigerians to walk with pride and take responsibility for shaping the nation’s future.
Beyond her advocacy, Eniola has been making waves in politics. In May 2024, following her support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu during the elections, she was appointed Special Assistant to the Speaker of the Federal Republic of Nigeria on Social Events and Public Hearing.
Expressing her gratitude, Eniola described the appointment as an honor and pledged her commitment to serve. By July, she had officially resumed her duties and was seen engaging with lawmakers, including Senate President Godswill Akpabio, during a meeting at the National Institute for Legislative and Democratic Studies (NILDS).
Eniola’s contributions have not gone unnoticed. She was recently recognized by Seyi Tinubu, who presented her with an appreciation award for her efforts toward the success of the Renewed Hope concert. Additionally, she received an award from the APC Youth Stakeholders Forum, which she dedicated to young Nigerians who supported the Renewed Hope mantra despite facing criticism.
