While we can&#8217;t list all the names, on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/2022\/02\/03\/top-nigerian-artists-with-the-highest-number-of-awards-wn-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WN Picks<\/a> today, we want to look at some incredible women who have been really successful in the Nigerian movie industry.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Over the last couple of years, these women have shown the world their talent, their versatility, and how well they can interpret the roles they get.<\/p>\n<p>Some of these women have also been able to spread their wings out of just acting, writing, and producing their own movies that go on to gross millions at the Nigerian box office.<\/p>\n<p>They are some of the superwomen of Nollywood, and we can proudly say we stan them and will always root for them.<\/p>\n<h3>Sola Sobowale<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_67041\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-67041\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-67041\" src=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/sola-sobowale.jpg\" alt=\"Sola Sobowale\" width=\"1000\" height=\"776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/sola-sobowale.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/sola-sobowale-300x233.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/sola-sobowale-768x596.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-67041\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sola Sobowale in King of Boys.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She is known by many names by her fans, some of which are Toyin Tomato, Oba, King of Boys, and more. Sola Sobowale is the proper representation of an &#8216;action woman.&#8217; It is no surprise when she got the role of Eniola Salami in the King of Boys movie, and everyone who watched that movie will agree no one could have played the role better.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, Sola Sobowale has been able to build a name for herself in the Nigerian movie industry, and she developed her brand to the point where she can star in almost any type of movie. She started off as a Yoruba actress but now plays even other roles.<\/p>\n<p>The reason she makes WN Picks is how her brand has grown over the years and how versatile she has become.<\/p>\n<h3>Funke Akindele-Bello<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_67044\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-67044\" style=\"width: 695px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-67044\" src=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/Funke-Akindele-Bello.jpeg\" alt=\"Funke Akindele-Bello\" width=\"695\" height=\"373\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/Funke-Akindele-Bello.jpeg 695w, https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/Funke-Akindele-Bello-300x161.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-67044\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Funke Akindele-Bello in Omo Ghetto.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When you say &#8216;Jenifa&#8217; in the Nollywood context, everyone knows who you are referring to. The interesting thing about that is the fact that Funke Akindele-Bello has been acting even way before she did the movie Jenifa. However, the success of that movie made her move it into being a series that was highly welcomed by her fans as well.<\/p>\n<p>After the success of Jenifa, she wrote and produced Omo Ghetto and then Omo Ghetto: The Saga both of which grossed millions on the Nigerian box office.<\/p>\n<p>Funke Akindele-Bello is well respected for her versatility, and her ability to bring a character to life, playing her role so well that the audience gets pulled into the world of the character.<\/p>\n<p>Funke Akindele-Bello is the reason people speak crooked English playfully and others find them cool.<\/p>\n<h3>Toyin Abraham Ajeyemi<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_67045\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-67045\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-67045\" src=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/The-Ghost-and-the-Tout-Too-3.jpg\" alt=\"Toyin Abraham Ajeyemi\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/The-Ghost-and-the-Tout-Too-3.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/The-Ghost-and-the-Tout-Too-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/The-Ghost-and-the-Tout-Too-3-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-67045\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Toyin Abraham Ajeyemi in the Ghost and the Tout.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She is one actress that can play a serious role and play it to perfection and also play a comic role and make you laugh and roll off your chair. Toyin Abraham is creative, funny, and versatile.<\/p>\n<p>This shows in how her movies are written, and one we can easily point to is the &#8216;Ghost and the Tout&#8217; which was premiered in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>The success of the movie prompted her to make a second part and the two movies raked in millions for the actress.<\/p>\n<h3>Genevieve Nnaji<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_67046\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-67046\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-67046\" src=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/Genevieve-Nnaji.jpg\" alt=\"Genevieve Nnaji\" width=\"960\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/Genevieve-Nnaji.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/Genevieve-Nnaji-300x178.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/03\/ogbeniskilla\/2022\/03\/09\/Genevieve-Nnaji-768x456.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-67046\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Genevieve Nnaji in Lionheart.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She is one of those who we have seen on our screens since the days of Old Nollywood who still stays relevant till now.<\/p>\n<p>Genevieve Nnaji is one of the Nollywood sweethearts, simply because of how beautiful and young she stays even with her age.
