Like or hate her, Ogechi Peters is a talent like no other. The rising actress who has starred in a couple of Nollywood flicks including, A night with the Governor, Lagos Men, School War, Faithful Sin, Helpless Sister, among others, is carving a niche for herself in the industry.

But despite her undying love for acting, the actress said she will not stoop too low to act nude in a movie. According to her, “I don't have to go nude to show the world the great woman that I am.”

Describing her experience in the industry as memorable, Ogechi who delved into acting three years ago, said it's never easy dealing with different kind of people in the industry, adding, “I've learnt to accept people the way they are, and understand them, otherwise you would have issues with a lot of them in the industry.”

Ogechi, who started out as a model after graduating from the university admitted making mistakes in life. “I have made mistakes which I have learnt from, and I thank God for the strength in facing them.

I think we all shouldn't have regrets because we always have something to learn from our past dealings. Learning from the past made me to get to where I am today, and the woman I have grown to be,” she confessed.

The beautiful actress said her ambition is not only to become one of the best actresses in Nollywod but also to be a source of inspiration to the young ones.

“My ambition is to be better than the best, to get to a level where I will be helping a lot of people, especially the young ones who are in need of assistance. To be in a position where I will be helping people to get empowered is what I'm aiming.”
