Nollywood actress, Ify Okeke forced to explain why she chose 17 as her birth age

We recently published a post about a Nollywood actress, named Ify Okeke, who claimed she is 17 years of age, this got a lot of fans upset because they feel she masked her age, thereby rainign abuses on her for trying to deceive them. Well, here’s an explanation to her action. According to her;

Who am I that should only care about what AGE AM I or WHAT AM SIZE IS or WHAT PEOPLE SHOULD SAY or WHAT I HAVE ACHIEVED or NOT? Only fools can be ungrateful to you My God, only fools like me can question your plans for my life by checking my age .

Read what she wrote in full ;

And she’s 17. Wooooooow
What can I offer to the Lord to make him happy? We all sleep and wake up without knowing what a great miracle it is. We get sick often times, we heal and we take it for granted. I was sick for months yet I took God’s grace for granted.

Did I really testify NO rather I was still asking for all I wanted. Did I at any moment realized that’s only the living that can LIE ABOUT THE NUMBERS OF THERE AGE? NO but yet God has blessed me with a gift the a man can ever buy with money which is MY LIFE and for this reason I say DALUOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OLISA BI N’IGWE.

Who am I that I shouldn’t be proud of your grace? Who am I that should only care about what AGE AM I or WHAT AM SIZE IS or WHAT PEOPLE SHOULD SAY or WHAT I HAVE ACHIEVED or NOT? Only fools can be ungrateful to you My God, only fools like me can question your plans for my life by checking my age .

Still Counting down to 0406…Last year I started my BD count down from 25yrs & finally choose 18. Firstly I want to Thank God almighty for my real age, I am proud of MY REAL AGE & glad to be alive but today. I choose to celebrate 18 only because I noticed that ladies in general never want to be more than the BIG 30 especially We the SINGLE ONES,all of us have refused to be more than 31. Alot of girls I know celebrated 25 & 27 more than 5times before they finally turned 30. And the other of the day is the photoshoot with balloons & it’s either 30 or 31 but Truly I don’t blame them, Do you know why?
1. Because most of us haven’t achieved what we what to achieve in life.
2. Because most of us are still single and if suitors find out about our real age they won’t come again cos in this part of this world(Nigeria) it’s all about age & that’s what matters especially when your mother in law got married at 18 seeing her son go for a girl above 30 is like a taboo.(bikonu help us to help you)
3. Because in this our generation Nobody wants to be old.
4. Because when you look your mates who have really achieved so much, you won’t be proud of who you are.
But I want to tell us that whether you celebrate 20,30,31 or 18 like me last year. You are who you are & your REAL AGE IS YOUR REAL AGE for me I’ll be 25 after have gotten married then 30 after I have my kids because that was my dream while I was in SS3.
