Personal life

Njamah's parents are of Nigerian and Cameroonian origins. She is a graduate of English from Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ogun State.[1] She once dated Timaya, but the relationship ended after becoming a subject of discussion on social media.[3][4] Commenting on her marital status, she explained that she is not bothered by remaining single since her family is enlightened and understands that the ratio of women to men is uneven. She went further to explain that celebrity marriages do not last and there really isn't any point in wasting funds for a wedding that will not stand the test of time. On the prevalence on "baby mama's" in Nollywood, she explained to The Punch that most of the single actresses with children regret their steps but are not bold enough to say that in public.[5]

Career

She started acting in 1995.[1] As part of her corporate social responsibility, she launched a foundation called House of Empress, that caters for kids with special needs. The foundation celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2016.[6][7]
