Genevieve Nnaji was in Ghana recently for her new movie 'The Mirror Boy' where she spoke exclusively to etv’s J.O.T. Agyeman on 100 Degrees.
She adressed issues including the role in 'James Bond' which was given to another actress and when she was asked the question; what do you represent? She responded “I represent every young woman or man out there who feels they are
more and watch the interview after the jump
not privileged enough, not educated enough, not beautiful enough, not exposed enough.”
She reiterated her philosophy that you can only delay destiny but you can’t stop it when she spoke about her country Nigeria. A country where she admitted has several challenges which need attention. “Africans still have the colonial mentality” Genevieve said.
‘We seem to want approval from the ‘Almighty’ – not the one up there. The continent is divided and there is discrimination. We are our own natural disaster” Nnaji also revealed her dislike for those who take advantage of others and ride on their backs to become successful.
The Award winning actress denied she had even been considered for a role in the new James Bond movie but said she would jump at a good script which for her was more important than who her co actors are in a movie.
