Her name is Annabella Zwyndila, she is a Nollywood actress, stared
in Samantha, hails from Adamawa state, born to A military father and a lecturer
(mother) and she says this has been instrumental to her keeping her virginity
intact even though she is already 25 and she is in Nollywood where sexual
harassment is like rain fall.
Annabella said when she told her parents that she was
thinking of starting a career as an actress, while her dad encouraged her to
“live it” as it’s her dream her mother was sceptical about it because she felt
actors and actresses didn’t have good endings that their men were loose and
their women hardly got married. But Annabella seems to have proven her mum
wrong as she is already in a happy relationship that is headed for the alter
and about response to sexual harassment in the movie industry, she experiences
them, looses roles because of that but has kept herself intact.
“I am still a virgin. I lost my guy (the first guy she dated
at the age of 23) to the cold hands of death but recently I found someone else
and we are getting married soon. My dad taught us good morals. My father is an
army officer, so I fear him a lot. In fact, I respect him a lot. He is not
everywhere but he keeps his eyes on us. Even when I went abroad, he was not
there but I didn't misbehave. While I was in the hostel he was not there with me
but the good morals he taught us have kept me till date.”
Annabella also said even though her man is reserved about
acting, he believes she can make a difference, he believes in her and she has
made up her mind not to disappoint him. She says she loves movies a lot and
it’s a part of her but if the time comes to choose between her love and movies,
the later would be the sacrificial lamb because her love is her future.
