Lupita Nyong'o has made Kenya proud!

LUPITA NYONG'O-A BRIGHT STAR FROM AFRICA.

She is beautiful, smart, talented, a fashion icon and most of all Kenyan. She is on high demand. We are proud as a country to have one of our own represent us well on a popular global platform. Her latest successful feature film, 12 Years a Slave has seen her earn respect and win incredible awards and accolades among her peers in Hollywood and all over the world. She just graduated from Yale and this was her first acting gig in America.

Oprah Winfrey took on twitter and posted one of her favorite pictures of the night at the Broadcast Critics Choice Awards in Santa Monica. Lupita tapped her on her shoulder and acknowledged how inspiring and influential she had been to her while growing up.
Lupita is a well spoken and humble soul. She never forgets to remind her audience that she grew up in Kenya. Her being and character was all nurtured in this beautiful country. She appreciates and praises her mother land for what and who she has become.
She is a good role model to our young women in Africa. She represents hard work and hope for the women of this continent. She is love personified. She is a blessing.
I believe that we need more Lupitas in this world to inspire and guide our young folk.
We cannot wait to see her bag the Oscar Supporting female actress award.

We love her and wish her the very best in her career.
God bless you Lupita!
