For actress Ufuoma Ejeno­bor-McDermott, the journey into Nol­lywood began when she held movie buffs spellbound with her delivery in Zeb Ejiro’s movie – The President Must Not Die. Today, she has featured in many movies alongside other top acts.

In a chat with The Sun, the former beauty queen and model, who is happily married to Steven McDermott, an American; opens up on career, marriage, sex and other issues:

What have you been up to lately?
I have been in a couple of films including Wives on Strike, Kings, and This House Is Not For Sale.

Talking about Wives on Strike, what could make you ‘s*x- strike’ at home?
(Laughs) Whatever it is, it should be a personal reason. Maybe, that is a bit extreme, but I have always believed in dialogue compared to strike.

You are a part of the cast of new TV series, Duplicity, what is it all about?
Duplicity is a series that would make viewers stay glued to their TV sets. It is a must-watch for everyone.

This is the first time we are seeing you play twin roles, how was the experience?
I liked the fact that the characters were direct opposites. It afforded me the opportunity to show my dexterity. I jumped on the script the first time I read it.

Do you usually sit back, watch and critique your movies?
Of course I do. I try as much as I can to up my game and do better.

You have been doing movies and going on tours.

How do you merge all these with family?

Somehow you have to put your life together in order of scale of prefer­ence. It is all about proper planning and arrangements; that is the basic thing that everyone should know how to handle.
