The popular nollywood actor Chinedu ikedieze a.k.a Aki reveals how life on the street has help him to become what he is today. It was allegedly revealed that he grew up with his grand mother somewhere in Abia state.
While
speaking with the press recently, Aki said, “My background contributed a lot to
who I am today and it is still contributing.
“I grew up
with my grandmother in Abia State and I learnt a lot from her. She probably
just gave me a free hand to operate as a little boy and that gave me the
opportunity to know how to set traps, play pranks on people and to know other
little things that children usually do.
“Also, every
child has a story; you know I was a street boy, so to speak. The experience
really influenced what I do today because most of the films I do are children-
friendly.
“You will
always see me playing one mischievous role or the other; I learnt these things
while I was a little boy.
Aki also
added that from all he gathered while on the streets, he put together to make
him who he really is today.
“All those
little things I gathered on the streets, I am proud of them.
“Aki is the
character that everybody knows me for, though Chinedu Ikedieze is not a
mischievous person,” he added.
