Nigerian supermodel Oluchi Onweagba has called out Temi Otedola for claiming to be the first L'Oréal Paris ambassador from Nigeria and Africa.

Legit.ng reported that Temi recently celebrated her 28th birthday and was named the global influencer and face of L'Oreal, the world's leading cosmetics brand, focusing on accessible luxury.

While sharing her feat with fans, the billionaire heiress claimed she was the brand's first digital African ambassador.

Not long after, Oluchi argued on her Instagram page that Temi was trying to rewrite and erase history. According to her she was the first Nigerian model to serve the foreign brand. 

The M-Net "Face of Africa" star presented documentation to back up her claim. 

Oluchi pointed out that she was the legitimate owner of the achievement but was not one to make too much noise about such records.

Throwing shades at the young beauty influencer, she wrote:

"LEGITIMATE TBT FIRST NIGERIAN REMAINS FIRST FOREVER. NOT A LOUD SPEAKER, BUT COUNT ON ME TO SHOW YOU ALL RECEIPTS."
