Nigerian actress, producer, and pastor Eucharia Anunobi, has revealed that her father refused to train her beyond high school because she was a female child.

 

The actress took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a video of herself, as she celebrated her achievements and recounted her experiences while growing up.

She wrote, “If you are still in doubt about God’s grace, read the caption below.

“I’m still in awe of God. He changes destinies in a twinkling of an eye. He is the rule breaker.

“He doesn’t need anyone’s permission to bless someone.

“Just look at the girl, whose rich father refused to train after high school, that he had no need for a girl child; that the female gender is useless to him and can’t carry his name anywhere.

“That he rather concentrates and trains the male children to any level of education that they desire. This girl child struggled all by herself, and is a model, a former beauty queen, a famous superstar actress, and a preacher.

“Now that girl child is a Ph.D. holder in Christian Education and Ministerial Arts.

“And she has engraved her father’s name on the map of the world and still carving it and will keep carving it until the return of Jesus Christ.

“I am that girl child and my name is Apostle Dr Eucharia Akuwa Anunobi. Celebrate God on my behalf”

 

Eucharia came into limelight for her role in the movie series Glamour Girls in 1994 and has gone on to star in over 90 movies including Abuja Connection and Letters to a Stranger.

She lost her only son, Raymond, 15, whom she described as her best friend to complications arising from sickle cell anaemia on August 22, 2017.
