Nollywood doyen Patience Ozokwo has given an intriguing account on how she was literally forced into acting by her class mates, an action that has made her a veteran in the industry.
Patience Ozokwo said she was the funniest in her class and her friends encouraged her to pursue acting as a career because she always makes them laugh.
According to the veteran, she was only doing radio drama and stage acting as a side hustle and not a full time career.
“I was introduced to Nollywood by Chief Zebrudaya(Chika Okpala) and Pete Eneh(may God continue to rest his soul). They were my class mates in Esute mature university program. They couldn’t believe how much i made them laugh everyday in class.“
“They practically dragged me into Nollywood(story for another day). Before then i was doing radio drama and stage play.” She wrote on her page.
