Chat With Damola Cruz(Top Nigerian Based Model)



This Week, BroadstreetNG once again took an humble stroll into the fashion industry in search of one of the faces that had boldly rocked designer‘s outfits both on and off the runway. Right there and then we found a face that had not only fared severally on the runway, but also on adverts, photoshoots as well as musical videos. Sometime late late year, he represented Nigeria in a modelling competition far away in Istanbul, Turkey and was crowned the Best African Model 2011..Adedamola Iyiola Adebowale a.k.a Damola Cruz may not be a name all of you may be familiar with, but i bet you that he is currently one of the most popular names currently in Nigeria’s modelling industry with regular features as a wildcard in Nigeria’s biggest fashion events such as Arise Fashion Week, Nigerian Fashion Show and so on. He takes time out to have a little chit chat interview with Oyewoga Korede.
