I have always had principles even before joining Nollywood. And this is a place I have come to stay and I will be here for a very long time. I don’t think it is necessary for me to mess myself up.

As for the younger actresses who are desperate and all that, my advice is that it doesn’t pay; I don’t think having sex-for-role or paying for someone to give you a role is the ultimate way to the top; it doesn’t just make sense.

Fame has not robbed me of anything. Rather, it has given me a formidable pedestal to be a role model to a great number of people.

Some of the most important lessons I have learnt over the years in the course of my career include to be true to myself, live, learn and love.
