    She has established herself in the Nigerian film industry by collaborating with well-known professionals like Francis Duru, Linda Osifo, Ngozi Ezeonu, and Segun Arinze.

    Kennedy-Ohanenye is a skilled lawyer, businesswoman, and politician in addition to being an actor and filmmaker.

    Prior to resigning for Tinubu, she became the first female member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to proclaim her intention to run for president in the 2023 elections. She joined the party in 2015.
