Three words – Hot, Fit & Fab!
Ex-Beauty queen and entrepreneur Nike Oshinowo-Soleye graces the cover of StyleMania Magazine‘s Body Issue in a form fitting Ankara shift top and shorts as well as a whole new stylish hair do.
Few months ago, Daily Times Nigeria/African Times Network (ATN), the franchise owner of Miss Nigeria Pageant, shocked the Nigerian beauty world, when they announced that Elohor Aisien (Founder & Managing Director of Beth Model Management Africa) would be taking over as creative director of the pageantry – a position that Nike held from 2009 to 2011. Nike who hasn’t publicly spoken on the baton swap, dishes all about the pageantry and its new creative head. Hmm! This is definitely a must read.
Inside the pages of the magazine are also fashion editorials featuring Nigerian music act Iyanya and sultry looking super model Ojy Okpe, posing in a sexy pink lingerie.

Old age is missing in nike’s dictionary. She so swwweeeeeet.
You can always trust Nike to give us GLAMOUR. Say what you will about her, she is one of our biggest style icons and as a designer, I can only hope to dress her one day.

yes Nikki I agree wt u, i’ll want to compare Ojy wt someone n her shoes, i.e got 2 kids, its not easy, its nt easy to raise kids ad stl keep fit, as for Nike, well what wl be her excuse?
tha’s cruel…SMH. whta’s her excuse? like seriously?
she’s okay.although enuf studio effects were added to the pictures so i cant really tell.
Nike, u totally rock, respect!!
Ojy Ojy Ojy. How many times did I call you? You are over-hot after 2 kids o. Ayam soooo green with envy! dayummmmnnnn
I need to rush to Make Me and get Ugo Igbokwe to make my hair look like Nike’s in that picture. I’m so loving the hair…
Not a Nike fan
Me neither!…
i love nike’s outfit, perfect!!! but i hate her critic of the girls *am not feeling you* *u luk a bit confussed* *u dont luk lyk u are ready to be a queen* abeggii Nike your own was too much, nai make dem pursue u commot. But am not sure this Elohor can do any better, i already hear she is partial at her Modelling Agency, dats if she hasnt planted one of her girls to win dis year’s Miss Nigeria. O ma gaa o*intiwa’svoice*
All I want to know is what on earth Ojy did to maintain this level of gorgeousness after 2kids. I’m her size right now but haven’t had kids yet. I’ll be needing some good advice and tips, thumbs up for looking this great!Nike looks gorgeous.
Wow at ojy,tthe guy is as well confuse,love the concept.Nike is as well gorgeous,the ever radiant ex-beauty queen.There are times in ones life,that one surely need kid
ha ojy is hot oh!!!!!!!!
Niki Oshinowo soo ageless, beautiful and elegant. Lovely outfit!
You can tell Nike does not take nonsense from no one. Lol. I like her though. I believe women should look better as they get older. I am inspired by older women like Nike, Iman, J.Lo, Gabrielle Union, Tracey Ellis Ross, Nia Long etc.. to not look like a calabash all in the name of marriage/ children/ age. I will work harder to be be healthy and look hotter as I age.
Ojy looks fantastic!
@christy i nor understand wetin u yarn o! not everybody suppose comment!! if you nor sabi write english put am for pigeon haba respect ur sef here abeeeg hehehe. Nike nor wan old im not too sure i like the pose.. i must say Ojy is a sexy woman ooooo enough respect!
LWKMD!!!!!Are u surprised? This xty geh na one real ngbeke!!! LMAO! She just keeps posting gbagauns to the detriment of everybody here. Na to dey wear bullet proof come here remain
She looks fab!! Ojy blew me away though, after 2 kids?!! gorgeous.

The last picture “sharp and tight tailoring for the curvy lady” I wished the photographer got a curvy model, there are way too many beautiful curvy ladies in Nigeria and we need to see them in main stream media thanks
She looks great; not to talk about a woman of her age!

Who has seen that model in her almost-granny pants ? I beg that is so not a sexy lingerie. It is just a weekend-stay-at-home bra and panties.
I tot i was d only one who thought that…. the underwear has TOTALLY ‘un-sexy-fied’ the model…why anyone called the set ‘sexy’ is wat I hope to understand some day…
Nice one Nike
