Is this Jidenna’s New Girl? Meet Nigerian-Russian Rosalyn Gold-Onwude

As is the Nigerian culture, when your “brother” is dating someone you have to get to know her.

After Jidenna walked the red carpet at the 2016 BET Awards with Rosalyn Gold-Onwude, new reports have emerged that the two of them have been dating for the past three months.

It was Ros’ first time hitting the BET Awards and she was super excited about it.

According to MTO, she is one of the “most eligible bachelorettes in the game” and “NBA players have been trying to pick her up for YEARS now, to no success”.

In 2015 she was linked with Drake after photos of them surfaced online.
