Nigerian actress, Ini Edo has revealed that growing up, she wanted to be a lawyer or a newscaster.

According to her, her role model was the late broadcaster, Tokunbo Ajayi.

She said this in a recent interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwo.

Ini stated, “I wanted to be a lawyer or newscaster. My role model was the late Tokunbo Ajayi. I always loved to watch her news. That is actually who I wanted to be like. I never really thought that I was going to be an actor.

“I have always been in the arts in school, church, you know. But then I went to do a Theater Art diploma when I was waiting for my JAMB to go do Law. Then I started doing stage acting. The opportunity to go to the film came, and I just became an actor. It was destiny.”
