No3. RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHER ACTS?
I don’t get intimidated by any big names in the industry, rather I admire them. When I know I’m working with a well-known actor in a movie, it motivates me to be the best I can be on set. This means I will live and breathe that script.

No4. LIFE OF AN ACTRESS?
It is like gambling. Not too rewarding. It is meant to be a lonely life but thank God, I have the most amazing family. As an actress, your every move is scrutinised and you are made to feel that you are constantly in a competition not only with others but also with yourself! You will be judged and misunderstood. You have to understand that not everyone likes you and you have to develop a thick skin. Life is bitter-sweet but you still sail through. No regrets anyway.

I am not married. I am single and I want to focus on building my career now.

No8. YOUR VISION?
I want to be known worldwide. It has always been my dream to make a difference and I wish to get there by being good and honest. I don’t plan to dominate the movie industry because there were others before me. I am very eager to make an impact in the industry the best way I can by being the best I can be. I want to be an inspiration to younger people who look up to me.

No9. PROJECTS?
I’m very excited. I am currently working on my first project entitled, ‘First Cut.’ The movie is starring three top Nigerian/ Ghanaian actors.                                                                                                      No10. FAMILY SUPPORT?                             When the time was right, with the help of my sisters, I was able to convince them. Right now, I have my family’s support and I am debuting with my own film & this movie was suggested by my family members who are my benefactors. They advised that since I insisted on acting, I make my own film. It was a brilliant idea. Now, I know I can make a difference with it.
