Every year, Africans head down to Lagos, Nigeria’s fashion capital, to honor young Africans aged 18 to 31 in a variety of fields at The Future Awards Africa. This year’s event was hosted by Nollywood actress and show host Nancy Isime, and it was attended by a slew of elegantly and glamorously dressed celebrities.
The 16th edition of The Future Awards Africa, which took place on Sunday, February 20, at the Balmoral Event Centre in Victoria Island, Lagos, saw Temilade “Tems” Openiyi, Bimbo Ademoye, Tunde Onakoya of Chess2slums, and a host of others win awards in their respective categories.
With a couple of feathers, thigh-high slits, and a whole lot of tuxedos, the biggest names in African entertainment, fashion, and the music industry gathered together for yet another celebration.
These are all the fab looks from the 2022 #TFAA16 red carpet.
