Eucharia Anunobi appears to have moved on from the death of her 15 -year -old son, Raymond .
Speaking on her sojourn in Nollywood , the actress told Sunday Scoop that it was a tug of war to convince her father that she was made for the movie industry .
Anunobi , who is now a pastor, said , “The first time my father saw me modelling , he said I wanted to bring shame to the Anunobi family.
He told me he would disown me if I didn ’t do what he wanted .
We fought over this for a long time but he didn ’t succumb to my desire .
When he told me to fill an employment form after my National Youth Service Corps , I refused .”
The actress , however , admitted, that she wouldn ’t blame her father for refusing to allow her pursue a career in entertainment .
She said , “At that time , most entertainers were into drugs; they didn ’t represent the industry well . Whenever I remember my father ’s drama , I don’ t blame him for his action .
I am sure that some people can associate with what I am saying because back then , parents didn ’t want their children to go into entertainment .
“However , I was a graduate already and I was determined not to bring shame to my family.
I used to go out secretly for auditions because I wasn’t supposed to be seen outside my house after 7 pm .
I only received my father ’s blessing after I featured in the movie, Glamour Girls , and I showed him an award I got in London .”
