Veteran Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, has revealed some intimate details about her upbringing including how she almost went into prostitution.<\/p>\n
Omotola recounted her childhood experience in a recent interview with Chude Jidenwo.<\/p>\n
She revealed how her father passed away when she was 12 years old, adding it was a tragic incident that left her emotionless as she never grieved his death.<\/p>\n
The actress further added that she was close to going into prostitution to survive because of the challenges she faced at a young age.<\/p>\n
She said, \u201cI think everything have been today, positively or negatively was because of the death of my father, it affected me so much, because I did not mourn my dad.<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand that I was his only child for a long time and my dad and I were very close, he was the manager of Lagos country club at the time, many influential people come there and because of that, I started rolling with people of influence from a little age.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I was 13, they came to pick me up from school, I knew something was wrong and prayed that hope nothing has happened to my dad.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I got home, I realized my dad was dead, so going through that mental process, I didn\u2019t know how to react and I didn\u2019t know how I was feeling, I was just silent but now that I\u2019m older, I think I really understand everything. So I just became emotionless and it has affected me till today.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is nothing anyone says to me that can move me, I am so confident in who I am and I don\u2019t fear anyone. I don\u2019t fear for my life, probably I would have become a prostitute today, I was very desperate to do anything and said I would rather sell my body than for anybody to take my younger brother apart.\u201d<\/p>\n
