Nollywood star Nancy Isime has opened up about why she doesn’t share the common dream of many young women when it comes to marriage.

In a video that has gained significant attention on social media, the actress candidly explained her focus on building her career rather than prioritizing marriage.

Speaking in an interview on Creativity Live with Lynda, Isime shed light on her perspective, emphasizing that, unlike other girls who often view marriage as a way to achieve financial security, her vision has always been different.

She made it clear that her goal has always been centred around working hard, achieving financial independence, and building a name for herself in the Nigerian entertainment industry.

“I’m scared of the limelight,” she shared. “When other young girls used to sit down and dream about getting married, I never did.

I dreamed of working, making my own money, and being financially independent.”

Isime stressed the importance of self-reliance and confidence, noting that her financial independence allows her to lead the life she envisions.

“I can spend on myself to the point that no one can come into my life thinking, ‘If it wasn’t for me, you wouldn’t have this lifestyle,’” she added.

Her success in Nollywood, along with her strong work ethic and determination, has made her one of the most respected figures in the industry.

By focusing on her career and personal growth, Isime continues to inspire women who aspire to chart their course and achieve success on their terms.

With her unique perspective, Nancy Isime’s brand remains a testament to the power of determination and hard work in a competitive industry like Nollywood.

Her stance resonates with a growing number of young women who are redefining what success and fulfilment look like in today’s world.
