All About Yomi Abiola:
-She's the daughter of late Chief MKO Abiola.
-She can be seen in AD campaigns for MAYBELLINE.
-She's a college graduate from Reading University where she studided Politics and International Relations.

Yomi on her plans for the future: At a very young age I learnt that you just can't plan life. It wasn't a nice way for me to find that out, but it's a good thing to know. My father was self-educated but he still became the greatest figure in Nigerian history. He taught me to dream and to believe that your dreams can come true. That's his lasting legacy.

The photo agency identify her as Yomi Abiola.

There is a possibility that she is NOT Yomi.
