Nollywood actress, Uche Ogbodo, tells ’Nonye Ben-Nwankwo about her career and life. is was originally published on Punchng
All of a sudden, you are seen in many movies unlike before. Why are movie, producers courting you now?
Are they really courting me? Well, I don’t think I work more than other actresses. I know that my spirit and my zeal to do better in my job have pushed me further. That I am everywhere is just because I am persistent and I try to improve on any job that I am given.
What of now that new, vibrant and young actresses have come into the scene? Don’t you think your chances of achieving your goal may be limited?
I am not scared of them. I am not scared of challenge because it makes you stand out. If there weren't any challenges, I might not be better than I was before. I would have been the same Uche. If you see new girls who are zealous and vibrant, you just have to make yourself better than they are; that is the trick. I am not afraid, they are afraid of me because I am never going to give up.
Going by how long you have been around, you should have moved higher in your career …
I am working according to the pace that God has set for me. I don’t want to be anybody else; I want to be me, according to the destiny that God has given me. I don’t think that my contemporaries are doing better than me. I came into the industry in 2006 and I think I have made something for myself. There are so many others who were there before me, but they have not reached the level I have attained in the industry. They are still seen as up and coming actresses. Some people rose to fame through other means.
