6 Belinda Effah
Belinda Effah is, without doubt, one of the top-rated stars of Nollywood today. And while she has been in the industry for close 15 years now, she is yet to break into the Nollywood A-Class setup.
In 2013, she won AMAA’s Most Promising Act, and she hasn’t been able to take it one step further to the “Best Actress” category. Could 2019 be her year? Time will tell!.
Belinda Effah starred in a handful of Nollywood movies in 2018. Some of these movies include: Purple Flame, Udemmemi, I Can Now Fall in Love and more.
Although she has been deposed of her status (as the fastest rising actress), 2019 is certainly another promising year for her. And the Nigerian movie fans would gladly be on the lookout.
5 Mary Lazarus
Mary Lazarus is one of the star actresses of new generation Nollywood. She started her career in showbiz since way back in 2002, when she left her corporate job to become a model. In 2009, she made her entry into Nollywood and went on to feature in a movie, titled Waiting Years (directed by John Njamah).
Mary Lazarus has made a slow, but steady, rise in the Nigerian movie scene, and she is, today, one of the most sought-ater actresses in the industry. So far in her decade old career, 2017 and 2018 have been her most successful years. All things bring equal, 2019 is expected to follow the trend.
Some of Lazarus’ star features in 2018 include Drowning, Married in Hell, A Wildfire and more.
