According to Segi, her growing up was so much fun. They had a large field in front of their house, and she, alongside her sisters and neighbors&#8217; kids, would always go out to play.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Segilola Ogidan&#8217;s Educational Journey<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Segilola received her primary school education at Laurel Nursery and Primary School in Isolo, Lagos. She then went to Vivian Fowler Secondary School, Surulere, Lagos, where she completed her secondary school. After that, Segilola moved to the UK and obtained a Bachelor&#8217;s Degree in Media Arts and Filmmaking from the Royal Holloway University, London.<\/p>\n<p>Thereafter, she proceeded to acquire a Master&#8217;s Degree in Cinema Studies at the University of Bristol, United Kingdom, and majored in screenwriting. Meanwhile, Segilola&#8217;s parents had wished for her to become a medical doctor, but according to the actress, she hates hospitals and detests the sight of blood. After all, they supported her own choice of discipline, and today, everyone is happy with where she is now in her career.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Segilola Ogidan Started Acting in 2009 in the UK<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Ondo State-born actress had an interest in dramatic arts from childhood. Growing up in a Christian home, Segilola&#8217;s passion began as a result of several roles she played in her local church drama group back then. She took up stage plays and also participated in school dramas. Upon graduating from the university, she started going for movie auditions.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/CXo0rUujYhC\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

There, she majorly focused on script writing and developing stories that are acted in theatrical films. She also served as an internship student for a movie company. Actually, Segilola started her professional career in the UK after her studies.<\/p>\n<p>In 2009, she landed her first role in Peter Pan at The Kings Head Theater, a movie directed by Stephanie Sinclaire. In the same year, she was lucky to grab a short-term job on a series and did a few theatre movies, and that was how she became a professional UK actress.<\/p>\n<p>Segilola did a good number of movies and theatre shows in the UK before she eventually moved back to Nigeria with the aim of continuing as an actress. Speaking in an interview, she revealed that one of the biggest sacrifices she has made for her career is moving back to Nigeria. At the time she moved, she had just started getting the recognition she worked so hard for over the years. However, she admitted that the Nigerian movie scene has so far been gracious to her to an extent, but the category of work she gets is nothing to be compared to that of the UK.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Back in Nigeria, Segilola Ogidan Has Become an Established Actress<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Regardless, Segilola Ogidan has, since her return to Nigeria, featured in a lot of successful movies. One of her recent and most prominent appearances is in <em>A Naija Christmas,<\/em> released on 16th December 2021. This is a Nigerian Christmas film that tells the story of two guys who were obligated by their mother to bring home their potential wives for Christmas in order to inherit the family home.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, they didn&#8217;t have any suitors at hand and so went on a quest to find their perfect woman. In the movie, she played the beautiful and sassy &#8220;Ajike&#8221; aka Ajiks baby, who is Ugo\u2019s (Kunle Remi) love interest. In 2022, her performance as the star actor in <em>A Naija Christmas<\/em> earned her a nomination for the NET honor award in the category breakout actress of the year.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/ChKdnqhDA3h\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
