Nollywood actress, Abiola Adeboye has come out to share her grass-to-grace story.

She recently revealed this on social media, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to her, she used to hawk several things including bread to raise her tuition, and she actually lost four admissions because of lack of funds.

The movie star added that she is eternally grateful to God right now because she is not just a graduate but a masters degree holder.

Her words, “This picture reminded me of my humble beginning. I hawked different things on the street but was more popular with bread cos that was the last thing I hawked as a young adult seeking admission into Uni, it was a tough one, I know a few people can attest to that here. I lost 4 different admissions because I couldn’t afford to pay, it took me about 7 years to finally get into Uni but today, I’m not just a graduate but a masters degree holder.”

WOW.

Nollywood is a sobriquet that originally referred to the Nigerian film industry. The origin of the term dates back to the early 2000s, traced to an article in The New York Times. Due to the history of evolving meanings and contexts, there is no clear or agreed-upon definition for the term, which has made it a subject to several controversies.

The origin of the term “Nollywood” remains unclear; Jonathan Haynes traced the earliest usage of the word to a 2002 article by Matt Steinglass in the New York Times, where it was used to describe Nigerian cinema.

Charles Igwe noted that Norimitsu Onishi also used the name in a September 2002 article he wrote for the New York Times. The term continues to be used in the media to refer to the Nigerian film industry, with its definition later assumed to be a portmanteau of the words “Nigeria” and “Hollywood”, the American major film hub.

Film-making in Nigeria is divided largely along regional, and marginally ethnic and religious lines. Thus, there are distinct film industries – each seeking to portray the concern of the particular section and ethnicity it represents. However, there is the English-language film industry which is a melting pot for filmmaking and filmmakers from most of the regional industries.
