Sunday the 26th of November, 2017 was all glitz and glam at Intercontinental Hotel, Lagos, as we celebrated the 9th edition of Exquisite Women of the Year (ELOY) Awards 2017. Every year, ELOY Awards holds to celebrate women who have been exceptional in all their endeavours and various fields during the course of the year.
The event which started at 5pm with the Red carpet had the entire entrance beautifully occupied by some of the ELOY Awards’ sponsors to showcase their craft. There was also a beauty lounge by Dabota Cosmetics with lots of freebies and free makeovers. Instant pick up had a stand where they familiarized guests about their services and gave 5 hampers to lucky guests during the course of the event. Mamador oil also had a stand where they treated the guests to delicious chicken drum sticks and snails. Martini and Coca-cola had their mini bars where they served guests and Ayo Van Elmar showcased her pieces which were beautifully adorned on mannequins.
The event proper started with an opening prayer, followed by an opening speech from the brain behind ELOY Awards, Mrs Tewa Onasanya. During her speech, she unveiled the new ELOY Awards Logo which she said represents a woman’s strength, power, courage, determination and empowerment. Tosin Odunfa and Olive Emodi were the hosts for the evening. The keynote speech was delivered by Real Estate Mogul Udo Okonjo. There were performances by Ruby Gyang and Aramide in between the awards, while Sunkanmi closed the show with an amazing performance.
