Onyii Alex said:

“I don’t have any plans to settle down soon. I don’t know. It will happen in God`s time. For now, I am so single. I don’t have a boyfriend. But (actor) Alex Ekubo is begging me to date him. I am still thinking about it (laughter). I am so single and I am thinking that maybe, Alex Ekubo is making some kind of money; he loves me,” she said.

Sharing her experience growing up in Mushin, Onyii Alex recalled,

“I have never said this to anybody. It’s a secret. I am that Mushin girl that God blessed. I love to eat ‘mama put’ and

and a lot of things like that. I am a local girl because I grew up in Mushin. People don’t know I was born and brought up there. I love my local food joint. I miss that part of my life. I always loved watching movies growing up. I used to watch Genevieve Nnaji and I aspired to be like her someday. I always told myself,

‘I want to be like this woman. If she can do it, I can also do it!’ And then I got into the university and there was this long ASUU strike and I went for an audition. That was how I was picked to play the lead role for 3some. That was the beginning of my career”.
