The Edo State born actress gave a clear and precise response to a question pertaining to her acting nude.

She said,

"I can never act nude because it is against our culture and my beliefs."

Also talking about her how supportive her husband is of her career, the mum of two said, "I was already an actress before i met my husband and he goes through my scripts. Sometimes, he chastises me for not kissing well in a movie. I could be on set for a week or more and he does not make an issue out of it. I know i married my friend and he is very understanding."
