It was an A-list gathering at the Medici Restaurant, Victoria Island, Lagos on Sunday 17th of January 2010 as Ex-Beauty Queen, Nike Oshinowo launched her much anticipated fitness DVD called “Fit, Forty and Fabulous”. The event had all the trappings of high taste and class. In this report, City People Fashion Editor, BOLA AKINBOADE brings to you the gist from the party.
A CLASSY AFFAIR ALL THE WAY
It was a classy affair all the way on Sunday 17th of January 2010, when Ex-Beauty Queen Nike Oshinowo launched her fitness DVD “Fit, Forty and Fabulous”. The event which took place at the Medici Restaurant, Victoria Island, Lagos totally lived up to the billing. It was an intimate, women’s only event which was graced by many fabulous Nigerian women of all ages. The event kicked off with guests engaging in chitchat while enjoying cocktails and champagne. While the main activities of the day took off, some of the women shared their fitness secrets. It was indeed an interactive segment and this followed by the display of montage from the new workout DVD. The exhibition was well received with applause as the guests also gave Nike a standing ovation for a job well done. The event was not also only about launching and mingling as the guests also treated to a sumptuous meal. It was a well organized event, though an exclusive one . And because of Nike’s Pedigree, some of the big names in the society were present at the event.
ACTOR JASON NWOGA, THE ONLY MAN IN THE HOUSE
Actor Jason Nwoga was the only man in the house; this is because he was the compere of this great event. He looked dashing in his black suit paired with a blue shirt. He charmed the guests with his witty anecdotes and made sure that was no dull moments. He made the event a very interactive one which gave all the guests the opportunity to loosen up and at the same time, have fun.
DR DOYIN ABIOLA STEPS OUT WITH DAUGHTER
Dr Doyin Abiola, the wife of the late billionaire politician, M.K.O Abiola was also at the event. She came in the company of her daughter, Doyin. Dr Doyin Abiola still looks gorgeous and fit in her 60s. She also shared her experience and testimony about the power of exercise. And even though Nike Oshinowo’s DVD is still relatively new, she is one of the first to buy into that idea as she also works out with Nike’s fitness DVD. Dr. Doyin Abiola looked beautiful in her Tiffany Amber dress from the Rhapsody of Art & Fashion collection while her daughter, Doyin dressed up her denim in a signature Renee Q ankara and jersey top.
STELLA OKOLI, AN EPITOME OF SUPPORT
The Emzor Pharmaceutical Boss, Mrs Stella Okoli was an epitome of support at the event. Not only did she arrive early, she stood by Nike all through the event. She also gave a speech illustrating how you can be beautiful and stylish at any age. She encouraged women to buy into Nike’s project as it’s a job well done and first of its kind in this part of the world. She looks lovely in her ensemble.
THE ELEGANT ERELU DOSUNMU
Erelu Abiola Dosunmu and Nike Oshinowo have always shared a very strong bond, and their friendship has existed for over a decade. It is more of a mother-daughter thing and Erelu has always been around Nike at any of her endeavors. And despite her other engagements on that day, she made sure she didn’t miss out totally on Nike Oshinowo’s DVD launch. She made a grand entry into the event arena towards the end of the event. And as usual, she was looking elegant in her signature white attire.
WITH LOVE FROM NOLLYWOOD
Three Nollywood actresses were the bold faces at the event. This includes Rita Dominic, Genevieve Nnaji and Omotola Jolade. Genevieve Nnaji and Rita Dominic also shared their fitness secrets at the event, plus how they do to maintain their sultry look. And one thing about these ladies apart from their acting prowess is their dresses sense. They lit the red carpet at the event with their trendy and lovely outfits. Rita Dominic looked simple but stylish and classy in a belted black dress paired with black platform pumps. Genevieve Nnaji looked really stunning in her black jumpsuit. Her outfit accentuated her trim figure perfectly – the curly mane and colorful clutch seal this fab look, while Omotola Ekeinde brought the spring feeling in her yellow maxi dress paired with a jacket and accessorized with a layered necklace.
ON NKIRU ANIMUDU’S REGAL LOOK
Nkiru Animudu , wife of the popular Globe motors boss, wore a different look at Nike’s event, which was different from her usual regular look.. She looked Regal in her traditional Nigerian attire. This is because she was dressed for the billionaire business man, Rasaq Okoya 70th birthday party which also took place on the same day with Nike’s Launch.
LISA FOLAWIYO CASUAL CHIC STYLE
Lisa Folawiyo, the brilliant and talented mind behind the Jewel by Lisa Fashion Label was also at the event. Lisa is not one of the regular faces you see at events. She is so much into her fashion designing business. She took time to attend the event because she believes in Nike’s project. She was one of the early arrivals , but she had to leave quite early before the end of the show. She looked very fabulous in her casual chic style, which is actually a piece from her Jewel by Lisa’s diffusion line.
A-LIST OF CELEBRITY WOMEN
It was an all women affair, as no man except the MC was sighted at the event. According to Nike Oshinowo, she wanted to make it an exclusive and low key event, since she believed that she had done a very good job on the video and it will definitely sell by itself, with or without much publicity. She wanted a very classy event and that was what she got at the end of the day. The event was attended by some of the big names in the society. Notable among those who graced the occasion includes the likes of Erelu Abiola Dosunmu, Dr Doyin Abiola, Mrs Stella Okoli, Mrs Derinsola Osoba,Nkiru Animudu, Genevieve Nnaji, Rita Dominic, Omotola Jolade, Lisa Folawiyo, Ruth Osime, Bolanle Austin-Peters, Elizabeth Elohor- Essien, Mo Abudu, Ebi Williams, Tope Edu, Tola Adegbite, Nana Otedola, Reni Folawiyo, Funke Fowler amongst others
AND NIKE OSINOWO DAZZLE EVERYONE WITH HER NEW SIZE 8 LOOK
Stepping into the venue of the event, it was so obvious that Nike Oshinowo was the celebrant. She was in her calm but yet excited state of mind, as she ushered in all her guests and made sure they were all comfortable. Though a lot of people who attended the event gave kudos to Nike on a job well done on the DVD, her new look was what a lot of people found so amazing. The pleasingly plump Nike who left Nigeria last year ,has been transformed into a fit and fabulous woman just in couple of months. She was therefore the cynosure of eyes at the event. And one thing that perfected her look for that day was her dress. She looked amazing in her Aspre Sheath Dress by Roland Mouret. The autumn red color of the dress is very complementary to her skin tone and the cut away detail at the hips creates a wonderful silhouette

The larger, 42,300-square-foot building would house the 24-Hour fitness club. The 4,300-square-foot chicken restaurant would also be a drive-thru. The two businesses would share a parking lot with space for about 280 vehicles. And, the developer would install landscaping and plant about 50 trees around the site.Maybe you all from the South are familiar with the Atlanta-based Chick-fil-A chain. The founder, Truett Cathy, opened his first restaurant in Hapeville, Georgia in 1946. Cathy is also credited with inventing the boneless breast of chicken sandwich. The first Chick-fil-A officially opened in suburban Atlanta in 1967 and has since spread to 38 states and Washington D.C. with more than 1,400 locations. It looks like the only other Bay Area location for Chick-fil-A is in Fairfield.
I've worked for Chick-fil-A for about 8 years…it's a wonderful company. Among quick-service restaurants, it IS what you would consider high-end. And there are MANY healthy options there! We are proud that all of our sandwiches are under 500 calories, with the Chargrilled Chicken sandwich being only 300. Sodium is an issue…but we are working on lowering the sodium in all of our menu items.Anyway, when my husband and I lived in Walnut Creek about a year ago, I was sad because I had to drive to Fairfield to have it, and so many people had no idea what it was. It really is good food, with a VERY high emphasis on treating customers with excellent service! They are also very community oriented, which is cool. Northern California needs one, and I think you'll all find that it will be a great addition to the area. I wish I still lived there! I could help open it! Grand Openings are fun…the first 100 people in the door get coupons for free value meals…52 of them to be exact. One for a week for a year…another reason we're amazing. :)BTW, there is no comparison to In-n-Out…ever since we've relocated back to Indiana, I miss it DAILY. 🙂 They are both wonderful establishments with great values and delicious food! 🙂 And they are both truly unique.Haha, I sound like I'm in a cult. 🙂
