Can we know how acting started for you?
My name is Ijeoma Diana Neife. Well, it
has always been what I wanted for myself because I always represented my
school at the NTA Enugu during stage plays and all that during my
primary and secondary schools but my daddy always wanted me to study
Chemical Engineering. When I graduated, I joined the Actors Guild of
Nigeria (AGN) to pursue my dreams. I joined AGN in 2013, when I was 23
years old.
What were your parents’ reactions when you opted for acting?
I will say it was not easy but my
parents are very understanding and believe in people following their
dreams. My father just said if I must be an actor, I must first get a
degree in engineering.
Who is the lucky guy caring for you?
(Laughs), I prefer to keep it private.
