There was a time a few names and faces made Nollywood. Omoni Oboli was one of them. Most people recognise Oboli from her early Nollywood days when she made her first appearance along with the likes of Liz Benson and Richard Mofe Damijo in the 1996 film Shame. According to Oboli, “It was a dream come true for me. I went on to play the lead role in three other movies,” including Hilda Dokuboh’s movie, Another Campus Tale.

Oboli looks back at her Nollywood roles over the years, discusses her new movie My Wife and I and goes behind the camera with Guardian Life this Sunday.
