Welcome to Obaland tv& radio Hello, madam please can you tell us your name?
My names are Ehi Buckler Isibor.
Is this your stage name or movie names
Yes is my name I just abbreviated the names to make up my stage and acting brand
and I am new by these names.
What motivated you to become an actress and now you also into music are you still into movies?
I have a passion for it, in fact, I have been longing to become a musician since I was growing up, but my father never supported that opinion. I normally sing in our church choir, but because my father is the kind that does not embrace Christianity it becomes difficult for me most people learn to sing through the church, in our house is a tabul to attend church, Even it get to an extent that I began to lose interest on music, but after I began acting I started feeling the spirit of singing again, so now I decided to add music to my career.
When did you start acting in a movie?
I have been in the movie industry for about 12years now
Why do you prefer using Edo language to act in a movie?
That is our mother language, so is important to use the language that we speak and is the language our people understand most.
Now that a lot of people have been complaining about nonsupport in the industry, what do you think about the Government come to play in the area of this support?
The entertainment industry needs funding, that is the first thing the Government should look into, because we don’t get support from anywhere and they can as well create a Filming Village in Edo state that will attract people from other states to value the industry in our state, remember, Entertainment is part of our culture, and we are named after Art & Culture.
