 Pretty Jennifer Enujiugha, 26, from Anambra State grew up in a family of two girls and a baby stepbrother she loves so much. She confessed she had fun but tough childhood. In this interview with ADAEZE AMOS, this graduate of Crop Production and Protection from Abia State University talked about her lifestyle, dress sense and why she abandoned what she studied in the university for modeling and entertainment.

Excerpts:

How was growing up?

Growing up was indeed fun! I grew up having a lot of adventures. That’s what I can say about my childhood.

Why did you via into entertainment after graduation?

Yes, it’s true that I studied Crop Production and Protection at Abia state University, Uturu but I always had passion for media and entertainment. Likewise modeling. In fact, I became passionate about modeling right from my 300 level in the university.

What have you benefited from modeling?

I learnt how to compote myself properly as a lady.  Reason is that at some point in my life, I became carefree with my appearance and I figured modeling kept me cautious. Yes, modeling gave me my groove.  I started training myself to be poised and elegant.

What thrills you most about modeling?

What thrills me most about being a model is being treated like a goddess and living in an amazing fantasy that you would not want to come out from.

Mention some lapses in the modeling world you would want to talk about?

Lack of discipline and playing of favoritism in the modeling circle is getting out of hand. I believe every model should be given an opportunity to showcase his or her potentials and favouritism shouldn't be played.

What are some things limiting Nigerian models in this part of the world?

The major thing limiting us in this society is the fact that modeling hasn't been fully accepted in Nigeria and it's quite challenging to have a career without having the support of your loved ones.

To some up-and-coming models, what few words of advice do you have for them?

I would advise them to eat right, take good care of their skin, groom themselves to be better models than the ones before them.

What stands you out in the modeling world?

That should be my size and my default smile.

Which of the Nigerian models do you admire and why?

 I would go for Oluchi Onweagba Orlandi because she has indeed given Nigerian young models hope. How she rose from nobody to a celebrity is awesome. Internationally, Ashley Graham is someone I would like to  achieve most of what she has achieved but wouldn’t want to be like her because  we are different persons.

If asked to market a product, what do you think would be your selling strategy?

What lesson has life taught you?

 Life has taught me that being patient can get you more than your heart desires.

What is your life philosophy?

My life philosophy is that patience is virtue, consistency and determination pay well at the end.
