In the challenge that is currently trending on Twitter and involves ladies rocking NOI’s signatory head scarf with a matching outfit and a spectacle, a yet-to-be-identified lady stunned social media as she had an almost striking resemblance with Ngozi.
While many hoped the lady @honilatte could articulate on economic matters like Ngozi, others hailed her almost striking look like the economic maverick.
Bioreports have compiled some reactions that trailed her photo:

Meanwhile, Bioreports earlier reported how photos of a Nigerian girl who ‘looked like’ Nicki Minaj generated reactions.
While some people appreciated how really beautiful she is, others came under her photos to criticise the comparison, saying a woman of ‘virtue’ should not be comparing herself with someone who is ‘wayward’.
There were others who said she looks more beautiful than the Pills and Portion crooner. Her post has gathered thousands of reactions from people.
