TVC E. Mercy Aigbe-Gentry is seemingly disappointed that she was not among the celebrities to grace the front page of the latest #THISDAYSTYLE edition .
The sultry thespian was one of the very few who got everyone talking at this year’s Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards with her outfit on the red carpet.

Pictures showing her makeup and attire flooded all websites and social media platforms prompting many Nollywood lovers to adjudge her as the best dressed female celebrity at the event.

But for some reasons, she did not make #THISDAY’s cover of ‘NOLLYWOOD’s BEST DRESSED’ at the #AMVCA2016 and the popular Yoruba actress wasted no time in addressing the issue.
Read what she wrote on her instagram page:
”Hey Fam….so I just came back from church and decided to check IG only for me to see plenty tags on a particular pix posted by@thisdaystyle …..I read pple’s comments asking why Mercy isn’t on the cover and at first I wanted to waka pass, but on a second thought I decided to talk about it, cos it’s been an issue dat has lingered for too long!…….I thought to myself why didn’t Mercy make the cover of@thisdaystyle best dressed list?…. Has@thisdaystyle ever featured a yoruba actor on their cover?………are yoruba movies not part of nollywood? …..is Nollywood not supposed to mean home grown Nigerian movies? …..hmmmmm I am very sure they didn’t coz, they won’t want to STAIN their cover with a ‘RAZZ’ ‘LOCAL’ yoruba actor!….Yes I am razz, Yes I am local and Yes I am a Yoruba actor!…..No I refuse to speak ur almighty English with fake British or American accent!….Because I’ll always remain true to myself!…I am ME ….Proud Benin Woman, Proud Ijesha’s wife and above all proud Nigerian. …And just in case e still dey be una like dream ‘LOCAL TI TAKE OVER’ ….????????????”
