She\u00a0is of Igbo ethnicity and hails from Oraifite, Ekwusigo Local Government Area of Anambra State, even though she was born and raised in Lagos. Still in Anambra, she attended an all-girls secondary school in Onitsha, Anambra &#8211; one of the major economic centers in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>Growing up, Chioma had a flair for arts and would go on to sing and act in the presence of people. Before she made a move to become a professional actress, however, she attended several schools. She first attended Onward Nursery and Primary School, Lagos, after which she attended Federal Government Girls College Onitsha, Anambra.<\/p>\n<p>Chioma did not study theatre arts like many other Nigerian actors but graduated with a\u00a0 B.Sc. in Banking and Finance from Lagos State University. She loved figures and wanted to combine acting and working in the bank. Nevertheless, acting took a better part of her heart, and in 2000, she got a role in The Apple, which became her first movie.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Meet The Parents And Siblings of the Actress<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_67673\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-67673\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-67673 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Chioma-Chukwuka-1-e1622614922570.jpg\" alt=\"Chioma Akpotha\" width=\"700\" height=\"393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Chioma-Chukwuka-1-e1622614922570.jpg 700w, https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Chioma-Chukwuka-1-e1622614922570-260x146.jpg 260w, https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Chioma-Chukwuka-1-e1622614922570-696x391.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-67673\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chioma Chukwuka with siblings (<a href=\"https:\/\/res.6chcdn.feednews.com\/assets\/v2\/ffb1a5d1cef535402acc577da16f0713?quality=uhq&amp;format=webp&amp;resize=720\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Image Source<\/a>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Chioma Akpotha hails from a close-knit family.
