As the anticipation builds for the March 8th gala in London, the energy of the evening will be anchored by the presence of its host, Victory Wilson.
A multi-award-winning broadcast journalist and international events compere, Wilson brings a level of eloquence and poise that perfectly aligns with the high stakes of the La Mode 100 Most Influential Leading Women in Africa event.
With over 20,000 hours of live broadcasting experience and the prestigious title of the Broadcasting Organization of Nigeria’s TV Presenter of the Year, she is far more than just a voice; she is a master of human connection.
Her background as a first-class scholar in Psychology and her role as an advocate for mental health through “The Victory Wilson Show” reflect a deep alignment with the event’s “Give to Gain” philosophy. Wilson’s career has been defined by using her platform to uplift others, making her the ideal guide for a night dedicated to celebrating women who lead with purpose and generosity.
Having previously graced major stages like Miss Universe Nigeria, Victory Wilson’s hosting style is characterized by a blend of sophisticated charm and intellectual depth. On a night that celebrates 100 of the continent’s most impactful leaders, her ability to weave together stories of resilience and success will ensure that every moment feels personal and profound.
She embodies the very excellence the event seeks to honor balancing professional mastery with a heart for social change. As she steps onto the London stage alongside the artistic contributions of Samson Oriyomi Yusuf, Wilson’s presence will tie the night’s themes of art, influence, and impact into a cohesive and inspiring narrative.
Her participation guarantees that the 2026 gala will not only be a celebration of what these women have achieved but a masterclass in the art of presentation and the power of African female voices.
