Born and raised in Lagos, Ini Dima-Okojie is an up and coming Nollywood actress that began her career in 2014 after quitting her lucrative job as an investment banker to pursue her dream as an actress.
In a chat with NET, the Delta State-born actress who is also an alumni of New York Film Academy said: ‘I’ve always loved acting from childhood and I knew it’s only a matter of time before I went into it fully. It wasn’t easy leaving my job in banking because at the initial stage I was very scared of what my parents would think, but miraculously I was able to convince them and the rest is history.’
Her first appearance on Nigerian Television was as Feyisayo Pepple on the hit TV series, Taste of Love. She has also starred in MNET’s Vanity’s Last Game and the widely anticipated Desperate Housewives Africa.
