While in University of Lagos, I took part in several plays and drama competitions. In 2006, after graduating from College of Medicine, University of Lagos, I opted for acting since it’s where my destiny lies. Providentially, in 2011, I was auditioned and featured as Debbie in ‘Behind the Smiles’, a TV series. It was my first professional performance.
In 2012, I debuted in a feature film, ‘Married but Living Single’ where I played alongside Funke Akindele Bello, Joseph Benjamin, Femi Brainard and Joke Silva. Since then, I have acted in several television series including ‘The Valley Between’, ‘Nesrea Watch’, ‘Lekki Wives’ and ‘Gidi Culture’. In 2011, I hosted a dance reality TV show, ‘Dance 234’, a Konga Entertainment production.” Kiki said.
