Is there no restaurant as well so that the centre (cos this one is not salon o…na beauty centre) would have the whole trifecta. I must become a politician o so my kids too will live well….the whole thing reeks of money and opulence that only politics money can afford

Nice. But why is she dressed in a boubou to the launch of her own event? She could have “glam’d” up a bit…But goodluck with this new venture!

Lemme just say what’s on all our minds. Another day, another article about the children of the wealthy and the political elite getting kudos for doing mediocre things. I’d rather read an article about someone who overcame a poor background to open up their own big shop. Congrats to Zahra though who looks as though she’s already expecting.

I don’t think this is a true support of Nigerian brands. It follows the same module as the other existing beauty retail stores around. If Glamd Africa was created to promote and support Nigerian brands, they should select their favourite Nigerian brands and purchase the products at a wholesale discounted price as they would do with the international brands which would be retailed at the store. This would truly encourage and support the selected Nigerian brands and make the others strive more. I think it is unfair to purchase international brands and expect Nigerian brands to pay for space to be at the store especially during the difficult economic challenges in the country if the real reason for birthing the Glamd Africa store was to promote and support Nigerian Brands.

Beautiful event. Rich, healthy faces. Congrats Zahra Buhari-Indimi. May you deliver safely. Congrats Kiki Osinbajo. Daddy’s money doing you right. May my dreams come true, even if it takes 10 more years. I shall overcome. Poor family ain’t stopping me.

Yaawn!!! Same embezzled funds used to sponsor the extravagance lifestyle of their children. Ain’t nothiing impressive here. BN, get creative. No amount of fake beeauty of hair, makeup, shoes will take away from the f23ked up situation Nigeria is currently in. When the west call y’all fantastically corrupt and living less than $1 a day, you get angry. But it’s the truth.
NO water, electricity, even the president had to travel abroad for his health treatment iin an oil rich country? And y’all over here celebrating some more fake beaauty stores launched by politician daughter. Good job, Nigeria.

Contrary to some people’s speculations, Kiki Osinbajo could have achieved this without her father “signing the cheques”. All she needed do was to organize a fund raising programme, which, of course, would have been graced by her father’s friends, associates and corporate bodies, by virtue of her father’s position. However, what gladdens my heart is the fact that Kiki did not open glam’d America or glam’d Europe; she summoned an inventive capability to promote Africa’s heritage, which will be a ” no less contribution” to Nigeria’s socioeconomic activities even by providing jobs. Let us not be prejudicial in our statements. By any degree of estimation, when successes like this come, they should be graciously welcome. What would you do if you were in Kiki’s shoes?

That place is never and can never be worth $3m dollars.. it’s basically a duplex undergoing development.. brands in partnership with the store, bring in their wares and put them on display on the ground floor.. top floor office. One desk.. two empty rooms.. a room of beauty products display for her koyin line.. all of this could well be by her effort, could well have had daddy’s support, material and otherwise, but it is not a white elephant project that reeks of embezzled funds.. seems to me like a rich kid trying to carve out a niche for herself away from her parents influence.. what’s all the brouhaha about? Leave the young lady be!
