Yvonne Orji has been a beacon of light in Hollywood, bringing humor and authenticity to every project she takes on. Best known for her role in “Insecure”, she has been vocal about her Christian faith, even incorporating it into her comedy and book, “Bamboozled by Jesus”. She continues to inspire young women to embrace their faith boldly, regardless of their journey. 

Sharon Ooja is one of Nollywood’s most beloved stars. From her breakout role in “Skinny Girl in Transit” to her more recent work in “Oloture” and “Dead Serious”, she has won over audiences with her grace and talent. Sharon is also known for her unwavering faith, often speaking about how God’s guidance has shaped her career. Her story is one of patience, perseverance, and purpose. 

Genoveva Umeh is a fresh face in Nollywood, but she’s already making waves. With standout performances in “Blood Sisters” and “Breath of Life”, she’s proving that she’s here to stay. Genoveva credits her faith for keeping her grounded in the entertainment industry and has been open about how prayer and trust in God have shaped her career moves. 

Tomike Adeoye is a true multi-hyphenate: actress, media personality, influencer, and entrepreneur. She seamlessly blends faith and entertainment, using her platform to inspire young women. Whether she’s acting, hosting, or sharing her journey as a wife and mother, Tomike’s joy and love for God shine through. Her success is proof that faith and ambition can coexist beautifully. 

Bamike Olawunmi-Adenibuyan (BamBam) first gained public attention on “Big Brother Naija”, but she has since built a career that extends beyond reality TV. As an actress, entrepreneur, and media personality, she has used her platform to share her faith and encourage women to pursue purpose. From navigating the entertainment industry to embracing motherhood, BamBam continues to show that faith can be a strong foundation in every season of life. 

These women are redefining what it means to be a woman of faith in entertainment. Their journeys remind us that success isn’t just about talent; it’s about purpose, resilience, and trust in God’s timing. As they continue to rise, they bring inspiration to countless young women who dream of making their mark without compromising who they are.

However, that’s all done now because Molly (her character name on Insecure) bagged herself a man and interestingly enough, he’s also on that journey of abstinence, is Nigerian (his Igbo name is Chinedum) and he has a job (he’s a former NFL player turned ESPN Analyst). Talk about a dunk in the net!

The couple is currently on vacation in Mexico, and they aren’t being shy about making the rest of us jealous on Instagram. From sandy workouts on the beach to the ocean view, to, of course, taking a few relationship goal photos for Instagram (PS: We know we told you not to buy into #couplegoals, we haven’t forgotten but finding someone on the same spiritual journey as you is always worth celebrating. We know how hard it is out here in the streets, let’s celebrate with a sister).

The couple has been dating for a couple of months, although we’re not sure how long, the actress made it instagram official in May.

Anyway, let’s get right down to it. Here’s the prayer she says she prayed to find this fine man:

“Dear God,
May he have abs like David
Skin like Sampson
A smile like Joseph
Fingernails like Solomon
Eyebrows like John The Baptist & A heart (and finances) like yours
In Jesus’ Name
Amen”
