Many of the Nollywood stars showed up at the Golden Icons Academy
Awards, GIAMAs, looking gorgeous! Popular Nollywood star, Richard Mofe
Damijo, was awarded with the Lifetime Achievement awards. (See photos HERE).
“Getting RMD to attend the show didn’t also come easy. Strong
indications emerged that it cost the organisers close to $10,000 in
logistic, to get the actor, who was also being honoured with a lifetime
achievement award, to attend. The actor, known for his class and style,
was said to have flown in the First Class cabin of a Virgin Atlantic;
his regular airline and stayed at Hilton Hotel. But for the seclusion
and crowd control at the show, fans clamour for the actor was said to be
overwhelming.
The attention was no less for the superstar host, who arrived in
grand style. Reports say the helicopter, which was originally scheduled
to land on the red carpet was, due to safety and permit issues, diverted
to the nearest street. From there, Nouah was said to have been escorted
to the Stafford Centre in a Mercedes-Benz S-Class.”
