The title of this thread is misleading

lalasticlala:
Chinedu Ikedezie aka Aki, hit the limelight after he starred in Aki Na Ukwa in 2001. Ever since, the pint-sized actor has continued to grow from strength to strength. In this chat with TS Weekend, the entertainer bares his mind on his career, marriage and dreams and of course, the relationship between him and his twin, Osita Iheme.

Excerpts:

Let’s look at your family background. How many were you in the family?

We were many like any other African family. I am the first son and second child. I am not from a polygamous home. I used to have four brothers but I lost one in 2009. I also have a sister; the first child of the family.



Considering your size, did your parents ever believe that you could amount to anything? That you could take the family name across the world?

It was always known that there was something mysterious about me; I have to be honest with you.

How did you get into Nollywood?

That was in my first year at IMT in 1998. Before then I was in the Debating & Dramatic Society. However, before I got into school I had acted in one or two movies so when I got into IMT, I approached those already in the know. I was like guys, I want to be like you; I want to be part of this world. I had watched both foreign and local films and seen people doing extra ordinary things and so I said to myself ‘Chinedu, one day it would be your turn to do same.’

Didn’t you experience any discrimination on account of your size?

No, my IQ made up for whatever I was lacking. My first role was that of a seven year-old boy and I delivered and the director and producers were like wow!



How did you meet your friend, Pawpaw, Osita Iheme?

I started acting in 1998. He came into the industry three years later in 2001. I was in school then and we had a job so he had this opportunity to shoot in Enugu. He had just started acting then. We met in the hotel lobby where we were lodged. We talked and I discovered he was a very shy fellow. Before then Amayo Uzor had been telling me that ‘Chinedu, just hang on, there is boy I have seen that looks just like you and guess what, he is in the industry and I am working on a script for the both of you.’ After our meeting, they called us and gave us scripts; that was the first time I did pure comedy. The movie was entitled Aki Na Ukwa.



Lately unlike in the past, you guys no longer hang out together like you used to. What is happening?

We started doing movies in September 2001 and until 2008 or 2009, we were paired together. I don’t think there is anything bad if we do separate jobs now. I was there three years before him and even when we were pairing, we also did our own personal stuff where we were featured separately. Somebody could come and say I want Aki for this job or I want Pawpaw; we were free to do whatever we wanted.

[b]. Tell us about the craziest things female fans have done to you?

I like them and they like me. Yes, they are my friends. I know they love me and so they will not kill me. At worst, they will kiss me and go. I am not dating any of my female fans.



How do you react when they kiss you?

I react in such a way that they feel happy and I go my way. A lot of times they are like ‘we love you, could we have your autograph and I sign.’



Where do you sign?

Where ever they make available. I just sign and I go (laughter).



A while ago you got married? How did you meet your wife?

Just the way every other man meets his wife.



Who made the first move?

I did. Does it really matter?



How did you pop the question?

God will not forgive you if you know you love a girl and she loves you and you know you can make a family. So, what stops you from telling her you love her? What stops you from telling her ‘common baby, let’s do this.’ I just told her baby, lets do this and the rest is history.



Three years after, how many kids do you have now?

In Africa we don’t count kids (laughter).

Hate him or like him, Tayo aka AKT pka Ajani is entertaining. If you see my mama, tell her say i dey nairaland.....

...in the right places.

decanta:

Her body na burgatti hope u gat dat.

decanta:
Can't get the hype over mam Bea ,she has a beautiful face but that's basically it.
Or is the recent adoration because of her famzing uti and playing tayo's mum?
Some people are too predictable.

Do i sound like one??

jjii:
Are u the spokesman of endemol?

Ladies and gentlemen Tayo should have been out last week. I'm suspecting endemol is giving Nigerians false hope albeit to chop our money. That could be why he rigged tayo in. I hope am wrong though.

They did not do it. Butterfly DS: she said they were planning on pranking tayo, but yet to accomplish that. Perhaps may be this evening it may come up.

ShortPistolZA:
Show me proof of his p3nis urinating on any edibles in that house & I'll stop "making excuses".

In this case yes

aodis:
.

Na everything wey ur eye see your mouth dey talk!

Tayo no sabi state and capital. Nigga saying kano kaduna

Shey na like that dem kill shaka d zulu? Black pple are evil.

Wyraciskyi:

Madame Israel is a jewish state. Judaism is not christianity.

True the internet is your friend.

Enemy of progress

olu4life:

Infuse fear in dem... So d new recruit get scared of joining nd find dre sponsors... Wif dat we can reduce the menace of dz God forsaking set... Called goat haram

This boko haramites that Nigerian army has been killing since have not finished? Are they up to a million or what? Everyday we hear several haramites killed, the next day we hear of attacks. Honestly i don't know what to believe.

Us should carry their wahala and go, we don't need them. Since they came, boko haram has been advancing. If they are that good, Iraq, Afghanistan etc would have been peaceful.

BRAV0O:
Okay so what the essence of all the media propaganda, US on ground didn't change anything instead of them to help us go to boko haram strong hold they will only be hovering their almighty aircraft all over our sky in the middle of the 9te , I hope I'm not the only one being having sleepless 9te over the unbearable noise of that war machine

* * US can try it any where I'm not sure if it really going to work here in naija even the trouble we are facing now its really nothing to our leaders , they just want some cabals to do the needful**

Good.

How did u know it was planned for 2 months?

Frankenstein:
This is really frightening. They had shooters positioned at strategic places which can only mean that they wanted the highest casualties possible.

This wasn't just any ordinary attack. It was planned for 2 months within Kano and with the help of some Kano residents.

Liverpool. Na wa ooh.

She is 35yrs according to tayo and i agree

Chiazalam1:
abi o. As if they will tolerate one yeye 21 year old with fat bombom insults them and they will walk away. Abegi what nonsense! She should respect herself as a woman if she wants to be respectes as a WOMAN period.

Theory conspiritus as usual.

When i took the lie detector test, i was asked do you want to date ? I said YES, But guess what, i failed that test.

No time to read the long story. But again if a coach sees a player playing out of line, is it not expected that he substitute him?? I smell keshi creating some distraction.#keshimustgo!!

Oboi this one go b problem oooh

...eva since the sheila tayo situation, that lady looks old. pls look @ her is it just me or......there is no way this individual is 21.

FRONTPAGE!!!!!!!
