If you have ever met Gussy in person,you will always remember how full of life and fashionable she is.
She recently celebrated a milestone in her life when she received a BAE Award in November, 2020 in Owerri, Imo State capital for her contributions to the entertainment industry in Nigeria and Africa.
Originally known as Mabel Tamunotonye Green, from Bonny Local Government Area of Rivers State, her unique dress sense and styles as an entertainer have earned her Best Dressed Entertainer Award twice.
A lover of beautiful colours, she sees fashion in Nigeria as having a big impact in the world now. According to her, “To me, it is a lovely thing to all Nigerians and a plus to us because foreigners now are excited wearing our Ankara materials, in form of etibo, agbada, shirts and gowns during shows. For the fashion industry, in a few years, there is going to be a lot of good things like in shows now, we see unique designs worn by artistes, this is the best trend in the fashion world
The Rivers State Deputy Governor, Dr. Ipalibo Harry Banigo has urged women aspiring to occupy leadership positions to show capacity to manage the offices they seek to occupy.
Banigo stated this while playing host to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ward Women Leaders at Government House in Port Harcourt, recently.
According to Banigo, “We must encourage women to be politically active at their local level, let them do something to show that they have capacity. It is not just to go and pick somebody, let it be that their works will speak for them. It is not always about money but character, how they go about in their wards matters, some of their homes are scattered. If you cannot keep your home, is it your LGA you will be able to keep? So, these are the reasons the women must show capacity”.
