Nkiru Sylvanus biography, movies roles in nigerian films are many.

She is famous in movies for her ‘cry baby’ roles.

She talks about the few scandals she has had and her relationship with Pat Attah.

No, not really. Last year, I spent most of my time abroad last year. I did quite a bit of travelling. Then again, my studies kept me busy.

Were you shooting movies abroad?

Yes. I did a lot of work abroad.

About your studies, are you not done with school yet?

I will be done this year.

How come it is taking you so much time to get a degree?

It is not so much time, it is just four years.

It is as if you entered the university very late.

No. Just as I finished secondary school, I got admission into the university to read Medicine. But when I got to my second year, I decided to quit and go into acting. My acting career affected my studies, but I didn’t want to leave acting. I felt what was best for me was to quit. Two years later, I went back to school to study Mass Communication.

Out of cage

I came into the movie industry in 2000. I came in on my own after telling myself the honest truth that that is the place I belong. I met a producer, Felix Okoro, who was producing Out of Cage. He talked me into playing a daughter in the movie. It was my first movie and I didn’t have any experience except being a member of the dramatic society of my school. I thank the Almighty God for being very kind to me because I found favour where other very erudite graduates have not succeeded. He has been continually faithful to me . I can’t really point it out. I see his handiwork on daily basis. I see it that when it comes to God being there for you, he doesn’t mince words, he doesn’t act in a small way. He works for you through and through. I say this because I am a beneficiary of God’s favour, I see his handiwork in my life daily. I see his love and favour, in my daily successes, and I am very happy.
