Beverly Naya
In 2010 when Beverly carted home the award of ‘Most Promising Talent’ at
the Best of Nollywood Awards, movie buffs began to see her as one who
has come to stay. As if proving her admires right, she further emerged
as ‘Fast Rising Actress’ at the City People’s Awards 2011, after which
her career has remained on a steady rise.
With this feat, the UK returnee young actress who embraced Nollywood
in 2008 with her first amazing role in a hit movie entitled Home In
Exile, is no doubt among the latest sensastions in the industry. Other
movies where she has displayed her acting prowess include, The Stripped,

The only child of her parents who lived most of her life in London

acting. Beverly who studied Film Making and Script Writing at Rodhampton
University in London was once rumoured to be in a sizzling romance with

following year as the ‘Most Promising Actress’, AMAA 2010. She also won
‘Best Upcoming Actress’, ZAFAA Awards 2010. In the same year, she bagged

Kano. Among other hit movies to her credit, the English Language
graduate of University Maiduguri featured in Two Brides and a Baby,
Twist, Timeless Passions, Hood Rush and others.

Many believe that her pretty face and well-shaped backside are reasons
producers lurk around her with movie roles. But whatever the reason, the
Anambra state-born fast rising actress is indeed hot and gradually
carving a niche for herself in the industry. She has dazzled in many
flicks including, Raindrop, Two Can Play That Game, Amaka Mustapha,
Strength of a Woman, Blue Blood, among others.
Annabel Zwyndila
With her daring and very challenging lead role in a hit flick entitled
Samantha, her impressively scintillating roles interpretation

Nollywood.

Union, Beauty, Painful Sin, Motive for Murder, among others, the Adamawa
state-born actress is currently the toast of many producers, as she is
currently shuttling different states and countries with filmmakers, who
see her as the next biggest thing in Nollywood. Despite her recent giant
strides, the sexy and humble actress who came fifth in the third
edition of AMBO is not resting on her oars. “I still have a long way to
go. My eyes has always been on the top because I dream big. I believe I
have the potentials to storm Hollywood and act with the best in the
industry”, she declares.

time. Anybody waiting for me to fade soon is wasting his or her time
waiting”. That was the recent outburst from the Economics graduate of
the University of Abuja and AMBO season four winner.
The Delta State-born starlet who is playfully referred to as ‘Little
Genevieve’ due to their striking resemblance proved her mettle with her
first role in Alero’s Symphony, alongside popular R&B star Faze,

always been a fantasy to most men. Besides, she has a smile that can
