Do they just assume that all Africans in Fashion and Entertainment industry are Nigerians?<BR/>2. Good that something postitive is being ascribed to Nigeria.<BR/>3. Not fair that they take away the glory from Korto's Motherland.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, who cares, Korto is AFRICAN at this moment, she is representing AFRICA, and to that, I say, rock on sister!!!

Korto is such an amazing inspiration to myself and so many others. I am truly excited about her future in design and the many other opportunities she will be afforded while working to establish her name and maintain a uniquely defined placement amongst the other fashion greats. Additionally, I would just like to echo her sentiments regarding her words of advice/encouragement “regardless of your past (especially if it is negative), you cannot let it defeat you. You must keep on believing, trust God and keep the faith that with hard work and perseverance you will succeed.” To all that see her as an icon of strength and endurance, pursue your passion. Your passion will fuel your drive while journeying on the road to success and destiny.
