Filmmaker and actress, Iyabo Ojo, says she always had a great body before undergoing reconstructive surgery also known as plastic surgery.

Ojo said she went under the knife to enhance her self-confidence.

She said, ” I have always been this way. However, i underwent surgery. I took off some fat in my tummy. When one has children, one has some extra skin and I hated it. But, I did it for my self-confidence.

“Whenever I am walking around, naked in my house, I want to feel sexy. Even if i did not do surgery, I have always had a great shape i watch what I eat, drink a lot of water and do adequate exercise. When one is in the limelight, one needs to take good care of oneself because a lot of people look up to one.”

The actress who recently lost her aged mom, was also made a brand ambassador by real estate company, Pragmatic Homes alongside Fuji musician, Pasuma.

She also revealed, ” I have been in the industry for 22 years and I do have a programme where I could talk about my private life because I don’t that. Due to that, many people don’t understand what I do. The house was not something I woke up one morning to buy. I had been saving for it. I save ahead for many things, including my children’s school fees.

“When my children were in primary school, I was saving for their secondary school, I had my first shop when I was 21 years old. I later closed it down because I could not manage it alone.

“As one progresses in life, one would make mistakes and even fall, but the beauty is being able to rise again without blaming anybody. Whether I’m broke or not, you would not know, because i I’m always happy.

“Many young ladies in the movie industry these days do other businesses aside from acting. Meanwhile, it was people like us that started it. We made them understand that they could not survive in an industry when the pay is small. They had to have other businesses. Most times, I take loans for my business. Over the years, I built a credible image and they know I would payback work so hard to make sure I Don’t default on the loans. A lot of successful people take loans as well. Things have been relatively easy for me because, over the years,  I’ve mastered the art of making money and saving.”

The filmmaker who has two biological children and several adopted children also revealed that the Covid-19 lockdown helped her because she was able to create fun videos.

“The lockdown blessed me because Tiktok came along and it made me start creating a lot of mind-blowing videos that got the attention of a lot of people and corporate bodies.

“During the lockdown, I had a lot of advert and promotional videos. A lot of young articles came to me to promote their music. I made millions.”
