Omoni Oboli says, Family Is Most Important..

Nollywood actress and producer, Omoni Oboli, was recently given a Pacesetters Awards, by the film video producers and marketers association of Nigeria, at the Investiture Awards 2016, held at the Rockview Hotel, Festac Town.The mother of three boys, who spoke with The Nation, revealed what makes the new award, special and different from the ones she has won in past.

“This is quite different because it’s from the film video producers and marketers association of Nigeria, which I am also a member. Knowing full well that without them Nollywood will not be where it is today. From day one, they have been the one behind Nollywood; pushing with their work, and knowing well that it is going to get better as time goes on,” she said.

On combining work and home, the actress/producer who has three teenagers explained that, it has been easy for her as she is hardly seen on every location.

“For me, I have always known the most important things in life; and one of the most import things is my family and they come first. That’s why as an actor, you don’t see me jumping from one set to the other.

“I don’t do it, because I have got to have time with my family. There are times that I don’t do anything for months; you will only see me marketing my movies online and other channels. You will not actively see me on movie sets. That is because I plan to have quality time with my family,” she added.Oboli took a break after graduation; she got married right after university and started having kids.
