THE LOCAL & FLY

Nollywood does have a plethora of enterprising young people. We will have a closer look at some of the most promising upcoming Nigerian actors.

Mercy Mac Joe

Mercy Mac Joe is soon becoming one of those Nigerian actors whose stardom was born out of a talent hunt competition. This Akwa-Ibom State diva is really on the fast track. After having appeared in 2011 she has done nothing but go uphill. She has said that she is never going back to being an orange seller anymore, so we can hopefully expect more from her.

Oma Nnadi

This name is quite new to the industry, but it is also echoing. We believe that after nursing her baby, she will get back to her pile of scripts and soon be on our screens again. She stated in 2014 that she has been in the industry for quite a long time and have been waiting for her big break. She has been in a number of movies since then, so maybe this is the point where she will finally get her big break.

Zainab Balogun

Zainab Balogun showed her interest in arts early in life and attended a lot of plays and talents shows growing up. So she is not new to acting and most forms of art, including music. She continues to push forward in her goals and working hard to stay at top of her game and to create things that will add value for everyone.

Bisola Aiyeola

After showing up at the 2008 MTN Project Fame West Africa and on Big Brother Nigeria (BBN) 2017, Bisola Aiyeola is fast becoming a recognisable face and beginning to surface constantly on screen. She expressed a lot of happiness from winning the trailblazer award for the 2018 African Magic Viewers Choice Award and seems like she is going to be appearing more henceforth.
