What first drew you into acting as a career, and what have been its greatest rewards and greatest hardships? 　

I started acting right from secondary school becouse I was in literary and debating society.so At some point in my life something in me kept disturbing me to move forward and pick it up as a career so I had to follow my heart that was how I started. My great rewards are, when people see you and jump on you with great rousing ,you become a reason for people's happiness ,you get gifts from here and there,endorsements from different companies and more One only experiences hardship mostly at the first stage,you go from one office to another for auditions at the end of the day you might end up not getting a Role,no nobody really cares about what you go through until you have made it,you foot your bills from your pocket and not getting anything in return with the hope of building a career, is just not an easy place.
　

Who is one of your favorite people to work with and, who do you really want to work with that you haven’t yet?
　


 I enjoyed working with Ini Edo Philip ,she so down to earth and treats you in a way that you will love to work with her again and again,I have worked with almost all of them but i still want to work with all again and again I have not yet worked with the new ones so i will love to work with them because everybody is gifted.
　

Morgan Freeman always wanted to play Mandela. What is your dream role and who would you be playing?
　

My dream roles are tons ,Emotional and Challenging roles ,something extra-ordinary,if the story of Stella Obasanjo comes up rather scripted I will like the take up the Role because she had a great impact she has made, despect the age difference between me and Stella i will take  up the role and makeup will age me. Though she left early

It was an awesome experience, meeting people from different Homes and Beliefs coming together to live as one Family,And also not easy you know, because there were some ups and downs during the show but it was all fun couse we all ended up as one Big Family.
　


Being that you were already a known face before you went for the show, can you say it helped you or was it below  what your fans expected from you?
　

Hmmm very Hectic question u know {she laughs} well all i can say is that I always do what my mind wants at that moment,so they are all Experiences in life and we keep learning everyday and my fans stood by me during the Show that's the most important thing couse I got lots of votes from them and also Tonto my Friend Stood boldly by me so it was all Good
