The mistresses a new film from the stable of Halima
Abubakar's ModeHouz premiered to a loud
bang! This weekend. The d-date was Sunday, February 24, 2013, the venue of the
premiere was the prestigious Oriental Hotel, Victoria Island, with that
fantastic view of the lake or is it the lagoon at the back.
This is Halima's first major production, and on the day,
many of her colleagues also in the make believe world (by that we mean fellow thespians-
actresses, actors and also producers/directors) came out to celebrate and
rejoice with one of their own; also in attendance were friends and fans and as
usual the press (publishers, bloggers, journalists) without whom no event is
complete.
It was a beautiful occasion we must say, the lady of the
moment Halima Abubakar, who not too long ago was honored as an Ambassador of
peace by the UN, was the cynosure of all eyes. The gorgeously shaped one and
talented one at that, must have planned her wardrobe to the t, as she had a
wardrobe change all of 3 times. 1st was a very slinky, long slithering silver number, it was like
molten silver was poured on her and then left to cool off. The outcome was that
it just formed on her delightsome body, leaving just a slit on the left leg,
which showed her beautiful silver spike shoes, truth be said, she really looked cool. For her 2nd
outfit of the day, she wore a creation by one of the designers that showcased on the
night. It was another beautiful outfit
by Alabi Couture by Meg Alabi, it was sheer on top and gold bottom and she
finished off the look with a pair of black pumps with gold studs on it. Her
final change on the night, had her in a red lace dress by another designer that showcased on
the night Azam Couture. She finished off the look with a gorgeous pair of
silver shoes.
It wasn't just about the premiere alone, it was also an
opportunity to show a little kindness to the less privileged. Halima known to
be very charitable at heart, made sure to tell all to donate their widows mite
in support of charity. The event master of ceremony was none other than Toni Payne, who was
supported in the background by Cornell Udofia, the publicists to many stars.
Opening prayer was done by Hakeem Rahman, while the national anthem was led by the
cute Kefee, we totally love how she and husband were just cooing into each other's
ears , sharing those sweet little nothings we think. Comedy was by Danny b, an hilarious son of the gun, who gave a good account of himself, musical
interlude was by Honey B, Jaywon & there was this trio of young kids, that
thrilled all to high heavens. It was fantastic!
A few of the guests and colleagues later gave glowing
reviews of the person of Halima Abubakar, the current president of the Actors
Guild of Nigeria, Ex-beauty queen Ibinabo Fiberesima, described Halima as a
good person, a rallying point and love personified. Mr. Prolific and MD of GrandTouch Production 'Chico
Ejiro' added that Halima is 'Miss Dependable' and a great person. Basorun Dele Momodu, the Publisher of Ovation
Magazine & also a former presidential aspirant, who had to cut short his
very busy schedule to honour the actress, said Halima was a good person and
that was why he had to fly in at short notice to show support.
Like we said before, there were 2 fashion showcases on the night, 1st to showcase was Azam Couture and then was followed much later during
the event by Alabi Couture. The event
venue was packed full with delightsome people and some of those we saw were the
gloriously delicious 'Benita Peters-a very supportive friend of Halima, there was also Susan Peters who was looking very slim and came in
royal purple, Oge Okoye wore a silver bandage dress, Tana Olulana too wore a beautiful grey/silver nos, Marian Keturah, the
delicious Liberian actress came wearing a sheer black number looking unbelievably sexy, Mercy Aigbe wore
a stripped black and white ensemble, Ufuoma Ejenobor, who not too long ago dropped
a baby came wearing a black outfit, looking as ravishing as ever, Doris Simeon
favoured red, seems like it's her best colour, Iyabo Ojo was in a pink dress, the
Aneke twins showed off their legs to maximum effect in their short burgundy outfits. Ex-MBGN 2011 Sylvia
Nduka who is a member of the cast wore a black number that had silver appliqué
on the side, model hunter and ex-beauty queen Princess Chineke was also in the house looking gorgeous.
Others that we saw were Jaywon, Loye Amzat, publisher News of the People, Alariwo,
Chico & Joy Ejiro, Mary Uranta, Fareeda, Amaka Ononibaku,
Agbaje Abiodun, editor of CityPeople Adeboyin Okeshina, Mike Osagie, the entertainment editor at ThisDay Nseobong
Okon-Ekong, Bobby Michael, Saeed Muhammed, and many others.
2 of the casts were not around. Yvonne Nelson missed her
flight so was unavoidably absent, so also was Moyo Lawal, who was on call on the
set of another film. In all, it was a fun-filled evening, amidst back-slapping & camaraderie. Everyone who saw the
preview of the film commended the production quality & the acting, saying it was 1st class, and they all can't wait to see the full length film.
We were at the event live! So here is the out and about for your viewing pleasure. All the
pictures were personally taken by Abiola Aloba, for Maestro's Media. Use without our permission is frowned upon.
