Canada-based Nigerian actress, Bukky Abaniwonda, says that she is set to impact the Nigerian movie industry.
Abaniwonda said she decided to return home in order to explore Nollywood and what it has got to offer.
“I’m trying to network with producers and directors in the industry and just getting a feel of the industry from the insiders, what it takes to stand out, to carve a niche for myself. Acting is something I’ve always wanted to do,” she said.
Although she holds a Masters in Finance and works as a Financial Advisor with a reputable bank in Canada, the thespian said acting, to her, is much more than just interpreting roles.
“It’s grown from something I’m just passionate about to a dream that I want to fulfill. It is also an opportunity for me to address a lot of societal issues close and dear to my heart,” she added.
