Why I keep my private life off social media – Omowunmi Dada

Popular Nollywood actress Omowumi Dada has carved a unique path for herself in the industry, one devoid of controversy despite her flourishing career.

In a recent interview, Dada shed light on how she maintains a positive and professional image, while also debunking a few misconceptions fans might have about her.

Omowunmi dada credits her success to staying true to her values. “I’ve always believed in staying true to myself and maintaining a strong sense of professionalism. I just drink water, focus on my work, and mind my own business,” she revealed.

Surrounding herself with positive influences is another key factor for Dada. “Having supportive friends and family keeps me grounded,” she shared.

She added, “Keeping my private life private is a cornerstone of my approach to maintaining a positive public image.”

Sharing some of the public misconceptions about her, the Madam Koi Koi star actress said she considers herself more introverted than the glamorous persona she portrays on screen.

“One of the biggest misconceptions about me is probably that I always have it all sorted, I’m an extrovert and I love to dress up. In fact, it’s also funny that some people think I am a snub. I have read that online, it was so hilarious. I just said this person must have woken up on the wrong side of their bed” Omowunmi dada noted.

Growing up in Lagos, according to Omowunmi, shaped her resilience, adaptability, and strong work ethic.

Her parents instilled kindness in her, while Command School taught her discipline. “Taking buses, trains and bikes from Iju to Oshodi for six years of secondary school taught me hustle and working hard towards a goal,” she noted.

The vibrant energy and diverse culture of Lagos fueled her passion for storytelling and the arts, highlighting the importance of community and diversity in her life.
