Last weekend, Nollywood actress, Rita Dominic added another feather to her cap as she eventually emerged Arik Airline Best Actress.
Recall that Rita Dominic accused Ini Edo of manipulating the online voting result which led to the cancellation of the exercise, a week before the festival kicked off in Lagos.
But in a twist of fate, Rita won the award, not by voting, instead through a lucky dip conducted by former Miss World, Agbani Darego, beating Stephanie Okereke, Omoni Oboli, Genevieve Nnaji and others who were also nominated for the award. But Ini Edo’s name was conspicuously missing during the lucky dip.
Interestingly, this happened to be the first time where a winner would emerge in an international contest of this magnitude through lucky dip.
According to what bebeakinboade.blogspot.com gathered, the organizers decided to adopt that means as the sponsors insisted on giving out the award to a winner, no matter the odds.
The glamour event which was hosted by TV Presenter and three times BBA host, IK Osakioduwa took place at Oriental Hotel, Lekki, Lagos.
The awards night was graced by a galaxy of celebrities across the world who dressed to kill. Mostly Nollywood super actors and actresses were the cynosure of attraction at the event, such as; Kate Henshaw, Genevieve Nnaji, Stephanie Okereke, Omoni Oboli, Ini Edo, Monalisa Chinda, Nse Etim Ekpe, Rita Dominic, Omoni Oboli, Uche Nnanna, Amaka Igwe, Celine Loaderand, Desmot Elliot, Kunle Afolayan, OC Ikeje and a host of others.
Apart from Best Actress award, there were also winners in other categories of indigenous awards instituted by the airline.
