Sharon Ooja, the Nollywood actress, has said she never intended to become an actress but her relationship with Jesus Christ led her to the make-believe world.
In a new interview, she said, “Honestly speaking, it is the Lord Jesus (Christ) (that led me to acting) because I never planned to become an actress. I have said this several times. I did not even know I was going to become an actor. But we thank God, I am here and ‘killing’ it.”

The actress also maintained that she does not thrive on controversies. She said, “I am simply here (Nollywood) for work. I am not one of those people who thrive on controversies.
“I believe whenever I’m in the news, it should be for my work; no disrespect to anyone who has controversies. It is not my thing, and if, God forbid, any controversy was to come up, I am 100 per cent sure I will not be the one to orchestrate it.”
On other things she can do aside from acting, Ooja said, “I could be a model. I can also host shows; I think every actor can be presenters. I can dance and sing as well.”
