as a matter of fact she is a successfull woman , i really dont know is still a young woman .God will continue to bless you .why must you hate her ?

bcomputer101: Here is a detail life history of Nigerian actress Tonto
Dike.

Tonto Dike originates from Ikwere, Port Harcourt,
in Rivers State. She was born on June 9, 1985 and
after her primary and secondary education, she was
admitted into Rivers State University of Science and
Technology, Port Harcourt, and currently studying
Petro-Chemical Engineering.

Growing up:
Growing up was wonderful because I had everything I wanted and wasn’t deprived of anything. My father was wealthy, so he did everything possible for me. I went to the best schools in my state, I graduated with good results from my primary and secondary schools and I hope to graduate with the best result after my degree programme. I have had parental love, care, family ties while growing up.
It’s been love all the way the only thing I didn’t
appreciate while growing up was the fact that I could not mix with my peer group, which is why I can’t speak my dialect up till now. Another was growing up without my mother. She died when I was just three years old, so I practically didn’t know her, but it was a joy to know that I had someone who I could say replaced her.

My journey into Nollywood:
I got into the industry after I left the reality T.V show
The next movie star in 2005, I was first runner-up,
when Kingsley Ogboso won, and from there, I started
looking for contacts and fortunately for me, a lot of
people saw my talent, I got involved in the reality
show first because I saw it as a way of getting close
to the industry, I had hoped that from it I would
move into the industry and it happened as I wanted.

Challenges:
Sincerely, I don’t think I have had to go through any
challenge. This is because I don’t see them as
challenges; I am a very prayerful person. I believe so
much in God and it seems like everything just falls at
my feet. Anything I want just falls at my feet. I can’t
say I have had to go through challenges since I got
into the industry.

Big break:
Perhaps, I should say my first movie, but that was
released last year so I will say my second movie,
entitled, Holy Cross which I did with Nonso Diobi,
Uncle Pete Edochie and Jim Iyke, after seeing the
film, the producers and directors wanted to use me
in their own films, Right from my second movie
people started to look out for me.

Nollywood:
I see the industry as a fruitful one, which can yield
more fruits in the future. All we need is hard work,
perseverance and prayer. The industry is like a
newborn baby that has to be nurtured and well
taken care of. I still think that we really need to work
hard because we are way backward. Though we
may be doing well, I still think we can do better.

Relationship:
I am in one, which I am very proud of. He is okay for
me. I took what God gave me, and remember, I said
God gives me anything that I desire. As for how he
feels when I am on set with all the kissing and
hugging, I’ll tell you something: When I say that I
took what God gave me, I meant that He gave me a
package in a man, all I want in life He gave to me in
one person.
May man gives me endurance, patience, love and he
is someone who understands. He really understands,
so I don’t have a problem with my handling of roles.
He might not be okay with the roles all the while, but
he still prays for me and hopes for a better future for
me because he knows I love my job.

Playing music with Patience Ozorkwor:
First of all, the music is owned by Amaco
Investments; Charles, Patience and I were just called
to mime it. I had fun being in the video and I didn’t
know it was going to be this big as everybody is
talking about it. I have no plans whatsoever to get
into music.

First day on set:
I was very scared. I was shy. I didn’t know what to
think or expect until the lights came on, then I knew
that this was serious business. But I had people like
Uncle Pete Edochie, Nonso Diobi, Desmond Elliot,
Nkiru Sylvanus, and Uncle Larry Coldsweat. They
kept saying ‘you can do it’ and I did it.

What you can’t wear:
I will not be caught in a long skirt because I hate it. I
also can’t wear Iro and Buba, it’s fashion for the
older women. I am still very young and I need to feel
free in my body you can’t catch me being very
religious in my dressing, I love to dress the way I
love to dress.

Sexy part of me:
I give that to my lips. I love them and people have
told me that they love them too, talking about what
people don’t know about me, a lot of people don’t
know that I am very nice, a wonderful and serious
minded person.

Coping with school and acting:
I am in my final year now, and this year, I have
decided that I must spend almost all of it in school
doing school work. Though I will still be on set, I
hope to be in school more. I will work it out, I don’t
have a plan yet, but I will be able to be in school
more often than I used to.

Philosophy of life:
I have a lot of them but I will share one, if you have
your eyes on something, on a particular level in life
when you get to that level, always know that there
are so many other levels left to climb. Try to be on
top, even when you are on top, try to be on top of the
top.

Artiste admired:
Back home, I only admire two females – Aunty Joke
Sylvia and Rita Dominic. Why Rita? It’s because
when I want to recount how my interest in the
movies started, her name will be mentioned as she
inspired me a lot. And for Aunty Joke, she is a
wonderful person, she is joy to me, I watch her and I
feel alive and want to do more than she has done,
Internationally I love Al Paccino and Julia Roberts,
they are inspiration to me.

In five years:
I really have faith and hope that I will be better than
I am now. I am not striving to end in Nollywood, I
intend to get into Hollywood, I don’t know how I will
do that but I know that God will make a way for me.

A word to fans:
I say thank to all, I really appreciate their love by
buying my movies, watching them and appreciating
me. I wake up each day knowing that without my
fans in my life, there would be no full Tonto. I love
them all.
