“I can’t believe that it’s been 20 years already!

20 years since I made my debut in the world’s 2nd largest movie industry: our own beloved Nollywood.

20 years of telling stories
20 years of interpreting different roles
20 years of taking on different personalities
Starting out as an innocent 20-year-old, I would never have known how much it would change my life

Thank you to every producer, cast, and crew member who has worked with me over the years & accepted my flaws, strengths & weaknesses.

Some of you are no longer my colleagues, but you’re now my family.

Huge thanks to all the fans, you’re my fanMILY

It’s time to celebrate 20 years of being The Yvonne Jegede because:

For me, life begins at 20!
Watch this space!."
