We know Omotola Jalade likes to stand out from the crowd and she certainly made sure she did just that as she headed out today to mark the Eid-el-Kabir Celebration. Eid-el-Kabir is a big Sallah day for the Muslim folks and of course, the Nollywood favorite saved one of her best looks for the annual celebration which is also a public holiday across the globe.
Omotola went full on a traditional attire donning this gorgeous Iro and Buba dress with floral prints which she further amped up with stunning red head-tie and matching coral beads. She finished the look a pair of heel sandals and a cute hand purse. “Oya o … Happy ileya,” she captioned the photo. “Who’s house we hitting for ileya meat today ? #barkadesallah.”

Oya o … Happy ileya. Who’s house we hitting for ileya meat today ? #barkadesallah
Well, this is a style statement. And who else would be making it but Omotola? The actress can always be relied upon for her statement dressing and we think she may have outdone herself with this ladylike look.
As a goodwill ambassador, the actress joined thousands of women for the viral Instagram ‘Challenge Accepted’ trend a few days ago and while declaring her supports to other women, she seized the opportunity to bring to the spotlight the genocide currently happening in Southern Kaduna, the Northern part of Nigeria. Sharing a black and white photo of herself, the mother-of-four expressed her disappointment while also demanding a stop.
“#challengeaccepted . May I use this to also stand with All the Mothers and Women of #Southernkaduna, the actress wrote. “It is sad that After All the Horrors and Killings I saw there from 1988 – 1993 … Kaduna still experiences this horror in 2020 . Pls Make it Stop ! #southernkadunakillings.”
