Chika Ike Says She Is Enjoying Life Without Sex

Chika Ike has remained ageless, what are your best kept beauty secrets?

-Honestly, let me thank my mother’s genes. People always say ‘I woke up like this flawless’ but it’s not always like that. I drink a lot of water, I exercise and I eat vegetables. Then I opt for fruits for vitamins and rest a lot. I take a lot of apples, berries and Mangoes. I’m not a fan of pineapples and water melons.

You took a break from sex, is that part of the beauty routine too?

-No, not at all (laughter). Sex is not part of my beauty routine right now. I just want to focus on my movie, Nwa Teacher, and my reality show, African Diva. I’m very determined. If I make up my mind to do something I face it. I decided to be celibate for now and I’m enjoying it, it's better that way.

How did your partner take the decision to be celibate?

-Well, he understands but I don’t really have a boyfriend or partner right now.

Hope you won’t surprise us with your wedding invitation card soon?

-It could happen but I’m not really into any relationship right now. All my energy is channeled on my new projects.

You’ve been scarce in Nollywood, are you tired of acting?

-You are very right about that. I’m still acting but very picky. I don’t just accept roles. At this point in my career, I don’t really need to be in all the movies but only the good ones.

Sometime ago you went on a tour that made tongues wag, how did you take reactions that trailed the move?

-I had to do what I had to do; all work and no play makes Chika a dull girl so I made it compulsory to take a vacation yearly to relax and make myself happy.  Even if it might annoy some people but I don’t really care; I just want to be happy.

It was rumoured that a sugar daddy sponsored the trip?

-Wow! People said all that? I didn’t hear-o. Well, I guess they forget that I’m an Ambassador to different brands. I earn my money. I have a store called Fancy Nancy. I’m business woman, actress and lots more. So I make my money and deserve to be happy. I owe my success to God and constant hard work.

Aside the Chika Ike we see on TV and on social media, who’s the real you?

-I’m a very cool girl, in fact, your girl next door. I’m that girl you can talk to.

If that’s what you are, why do people see you as a snub?

-You don’t expect everybody to have a good opinion about you. I can't be open to everybody. You have to come closer to me to know my kind of person she says.
