Nollywood actress Empress Njamah in a recent interview says she will ask God when she will get married.
In her interview with The Punch she said that she will also ask God when she will have her own kids.
“If I had the opportunity to see God, I would ask him when I would get married and have kids of my own” she said.
Also in the
interview, Empress Njamah revealed why she relocated to Abuja from
Lagos. According to her she moved to Lagos because of her clothing
business.
“I relocated from Lagos to Abuja
because of my business. My clothing line was suited for women of the
north and that is why I relocated to Abuja. I make long dresses and my
target is Abuja women” she said.
“My move
has not affected my career as an actress. Even when I am 80 years old, I
can still play various roles. If I relied on Nollywood, I would not be
able to feed these children. My relocation has nothing to do with
Nollywood. Even if I was still in Lagos, I would have still faced my
business till it could stand on its own. The movie is always there and
the roles still keep coming in” she further said.
In the interview she also spoke about her foundation which helps kids. “Officially
my foundation is 10 years old but I started the initiative when I was
in secondary school to celebrate my birthday. When I was able to stand
on my own I was able to float the foundation, Empress Njama Foundation.
It is against my nature to take funds from people so I do everything
with my money. I usually have celebrations with less-privileged kids on
my birthday and every festive celebration like Valentine’s Day, October
1st, etc. I started in Lagos and I came back to Lagos after being in
Abuja for six years to celebrate a decade of founding my foundation.
“I
am so happy that most of the children have grown and are doing very
well. Sometimes I find it difficult to carry on but God has always been
faithful at the end. I built four blocks of classrooms for the children
because I know that most of these children are very intelligent
especially the blind ones.
“I have
adopted all the children to my foundation. In Abuja I have about 1,400.
Before I left Lagos, my foundation was catering for over 800 children.
Now that I came to celebrate here I saw that they were lacking in a lot
of things and I would change that. I don’t count my children, I count my
joy” she also stated.
Empress Njamah was a year older on November 16.
