Nollywood star, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, sat down last December for an interview with Vladimir Duthiers, for CNN African Voices. The interview will be aired over this weekend on CNN. During the wide ranging interview, she discussed her upbringing, achievements, activism, and future plans. She is quoted as saying:

“I’ve reached a point in my life where I’ve realised I have to leave something. I have to have a legacy. I decided I will be an activist for Africa. My experience with the UN and other humanitarian organisations inspired me to want to speak out and say more and there’s so much you can just say with words. This was my motivation for singing."
