Kenyan actress Lupita Amondi Nyong’o has made history after scooping the Best Supporting Actress Oscar at the 86th Academy awards held in Los Angeles, California on Sunday night for her role in the movie 12 years a Slave.
Lupita who is the first Kenyan to be nominated as well as win an Oscar was in the company of her family.
She beat out her main competitor Jennifer Lawrence who had been nominated for the award for her role in the movie American Hustle. Other nominees in the category included Sally Hawkins (Blue Jasmine), Julia Roberts (August: Osage County) and June Squibb (Nebraska).
A clearly stunned Lupita took the stage to a standing ovation and went on to thank the 12 years a slave cast. She also thanked her brother Junior who was sitting next to her as well as her family.
“As I look down this Oscar, I hope that every child knows that no matter where you come from, Your dreams are valid.” She said.
