The EMY Africa Awards recently concluded with a vibrant hosting duo, Nancy Isime and Nathaniel Attoh, who charmed the audience with their undeniable chemistry.
Nancy Isime made an impression that portrayed traditional Ghanaian culture through her chosen attire. She wore a stunning Ghanaian kente wrap, embodying Ghana’s rich cultural heritage.
Her short haircut, in line with the tradition of Ghanaian queen mothers, perfectly complemented the royal kente. These queen mothers typically cut their hair to signify their royal status, and Nancy’s haircut symbolized her as an honorary queen for the evening.
Indeed, the true showstopper was the exquisite collection of beads adorning Nancy’s ensemble. These beads were not mere accessories; they symbolized royalty.
Large, ornate beads adorned her head, cascading down her neck and elegantly wrapping around her arms. The pièce de résistance was the royal beads encircling her ankles, adding a regal touch to her outfit.
Moreover, the beads around her waist were chosen carefully, serving as a perfect centrepiece for her ensemble. As she posed for photos while holding a golden staff, she exuded an air of majesty that was impossible to ignore.
Also, the rings and beads she wore featured Adinkrah symbols, further enhancing the authenticity of her Ghanaian attire.
Yet, it wasn’t just her attire that captivated the audience. In a touching video message, Nancy greeted the people of Ghana, speaking in Twi, the Akan language. Her genuine affection and respect for the Ghanaian people were evident.
Nancy Isime’s show of the royal Ghanaian look was nothing short of perfection. As a Nigerian actress, she seamlessly blended her culture with that of Ghana, creating a beautiful fusion that celebrated the richness of African traditions.
Her outfit, coupled with her heartfelt greetings and genuine admiration, made an incredible mark on the EMY Africa Awards, serving as a reminder of the beauty and unity that can be discovered in diversity.
