Spotlight: Tolu ‘Toolz’ Oniru
The 1st Spotlight shines its ever-eager light on a lady some may know as Tolu Oniru, many know as Toolz from Beat FM 99.9 Lagos and all should recognise as a formidable talent in the Nigerian entertainment industry. With a wealth of experience, working for MTV in UK before moving back to Nigeria to add her unique vibrancy to the mix, Toolz is a woman I definitely admire. Her refreshing personality, openness and humility grant her the success she’s experienced in her various projects and are attributes many of us ladies should embody. Lest I forget, she also dresses her curves the way a confident woman should!
I was lucky to get a quick interview with her during her travels through London (coming back from the MTV EMAs where she partied it up with Kim and Kanye, naturally) to talk about fame, fashion, being a role model and why Dame Vivienne Westwood is her Queen of Curves .
