“Why we awarded Bobrisky Best Dressed Female” – Eniola Ajao
A Nigerian actress and filmmaker, Eniola Ajao, has come out to explain why controversial transwoman Bobrisky was awarded ‘Best Female Dressed’.
Recall that Gistreel reported how celebrities who attended the movie premiere of Ajanaku: Beast of Two Worlds movie flared up for awarding Bobrisky with the Best Dressed Female.
Drama erupted on the internet following the crossdresser’s victory, as Toyin Abraham, Portable, Dayo Amusa, and others engaged in conflict with him.
The entire situation took a new turn when Femi Adebayo and Dayo Amusa got into a public fight, with the latter criticizing the movie star for awarding Bobrisky.
Eniola revealed in an interview with Arise News TV that Bobrisky’s selection as the winner was a calculated decision, as it was all part of a PR stunt and marketing plan to support her film.
She mentioned that the crossdresser is a contentious figure, which is why she chose to give him the Best Dressed Female title in an effort to increase awareness of her project.
Eniola Ajao observed that Femi Adebayo, who was unaware of her plans and was merely attempting to assist her by serving as the evening’s presenter, is the target of criticism from the public.
She said;
“It was all joke, we wanted to have fun. We wanted people to talk about the movie. My team and I decided that the movie needed to be talked about and for it to be in the faces of people and we decided to give it to Bobrisky because he is a controversial person.
At the end of the day, people started talking about it, but some people are trying to come at Femi Adebayo, who is my boss. He wasn’t even aware of so many things that were going on. I only called him to help me announce this, he wasn’t part of the judges or anything”
