I am not a snob; I am actually shy- Chioma Akpotha

Nollywood actress, Chioma Akpotha has disclosed reasons why people think she is a snob. Akpotha noted that she is aware that a lot of people think she has an attitude problem.

Speaking in a chat with Punch, she said: ”I am aware that people think I am a snob, but I am actually a shy person. My job demands that I should abandon who I am. It used to be even worse for me because I went to a single-sex school; so, relating to guys was difficult for me. However, I am adjusting now because of acting.”

The award winning role interpreter said she tries as much as possible to protect herself which gives people the impression that she is a snob.

“When you meet me newly, the first impression you get is that I am cold. But I am only trying to protect myself from people I don’t know. If I am in a room and I know everyone there, I will be very comfortable and playful. But if I don’t know anyone, I will be cold. I am not trying to blow my trumpet; I am just saying that I need to know you to be comfortable with you,” .
