Which actress spent some time working hard amidst distractions and
other challenges and still found time to unwind? Certainly you will find
many and Chika Ike is among them. Throughout the New Year she charged
the atmosphere in the entertainment industry when she travelled to Abu
Dhabi on her break and kept many tongues wagging.
Chika is like
the proverbial cat with nine lives as she's grappling with an
unsuccessful mar- riage that has not prevented her from exploring her
talents. She started as a design, then ventured into business with her
outfit called Fancy Nancy.
Today she's probably the most
sought-after actress in Nollywood. The Anambra-born actress who has put
her failed marriage behind her and moved on with her life is unrelent-
ing in her career and she was recently vested with the title of Akwa Ugo
1 of Amuri Kingdom in recognition of her industriousness and
philanthropy. In this interview with Christian Agadibe, Ms Ike covers
lessons she learnt from her first marriage and other issues.
Excerpts after the break.
