Charity Eke Fanni, also known as ChaCha Eke is one of Nollywood\u2019s finest actresses who has received praises for her role in showcasing African and Nigerian culture to the world through her roles in epic movies. Best known for playing emotional characters, Chacha has appeared in dozens of Nigerian films with local settings. And aside from being an actress, Chacha is also a model and television personality. However, that is not all there is about the talented and pretty Nollywood actress.<\/p>\n
The prominent and talented Nollywood actress is from Ebonyi State, Nigeria. She was born in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, eastern Nigeria but she spent her childhood and early teenage years in three different cities in Nigeria which are Abakaliki, Asaba, and Enugu. She had her primary education at ESUT Nursery and Primary School in Agbani, Enugu State, and had her secondary education at Our Lord Shepherd International School (OLSIS) in Enugu State. She went to Ebonyi State University for her tertiary education and graduated with a B.sc in Accountancy.<\/p>\n
John Ubochi Eke, a professor of Mathematics Education from Pacific West University USA, is the father of Charity Eke, one of Nollywood\u2019s most gifted actresses. Talking about impact, the renowned professor was a major contributor to the decree that re-established the National Primary Education Commission (NPEC) in 1993\/1994. To the Institute of Empowerment and strategy (in collaboration with UN), ChaCha’s father served as the chancellor and afterward, was appointed the Commissioner of Education by the governor of Ebonyi State.<\/p>\n
With all his achievements in the educational sector, one will think that he will use that to influence all his children to follow the same part. Instead, he understood the importance of supporting his daughter to achieve her dream which turned out well.<\/p>\n
Chacha Eke’s mother’s name is not known but from our findings, she is a reputable barrister and like her father, her mother was quite supportive of her choice of career. Chacha’s mother resides in Abakalili, Ebonyi State with her husband. From the pictures the Nigerian actress posts on her Instagram account, she seems to have a very good relationship with her mother.<\/p>\n
ChaCha Eke as stated earlier is not the only child of her parents. She has a sister named Peace and two brothers whose names are Justice Eke and Ikechukwu Eke (Aik). The four siblings are all carbon copies of their mother as they somewhat don’t show much resemblance to their father. Not much is known about Chacha’s siblings, not until the issues she allegedly had with her husband.<\/p>\n
Chacha Eke started her acting career in 2009 when she began participating in the Miss Nollywood Talent Hunt show<\/em>, an acting contest that took place in the city of Abakaliki. She began attending various auditions which favored her as she managed to receive different minor roles as a supporting actress. However, she rose to fame when she starred in the 2012 drama film, The End is Near<\/em>. The film attracted a huge fan following to her and she became more recognized. She is currently considered to be one of the most gifted and most prominent young actresses in the Nollywood industry. Some of her best films include:<\/p>\n\n
