Mbau has been nominated in the Main Character Energy category for her standout role in the hit Netflix reality series Young, Famous & African.
“So excited to be nominated as the first African for the Netflix Superlative vote for: Main Character Energy…” she wrote on Instagram, celebrating the nod..
