When you are married to a wife who has a higher education than you, there would always be a case of her using her level as a unit to measure success.

Sometimes, what they might utter when there is a tiff can bruise your ego and destroy you for life—at other times too, that can be used as motivation to push and be at the same level as her.

Nollywood veteran actor Kingsley Ogbonna aka Dauda opted for the latter move and today, he says he is exactly where he ought to be.

According to Dauda who has been missing from the big screens for years now, it took his wife and his brother-in-law constant ‘insult’ and of course the last wish of his dying father to pursue Law in the university.


Quote
“It is my wife that made me go study law. My wife is a master’s degree holder in Psychology. Before my father died, he used to tell me that women are not supposed to be more educative than their husbands. I now said to myself, I am a first-degree holder and if my wife any day says something about having masters in this house, that day I will chase her away. One day she confirmed my fears and said it.

“Her younger brother who also is a Master’s degree holder in Engineering was with us one day when we were quarreling. I was explaining to her brother when she now told me that if I had done my Masters I would have understood what they are saying. I saw it as a challenge and not as an insult again.”

The actor who also doubles as the special adviser on Arts, Culture and Tourism to the governor of Abia State, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu added; “I now thought of what to study to neutralize this master issue and even do a greater subject. I decided to go in for law. I still have to give kudos to my dad because he has always wanted me to be a lawyer. He was always like if you will not study Law then marry a lawyer for me.

Quote
“Since I am in Umuahia, Abia State University, I decided to study Law. That was what propelled me to study Law. I am not studying law to be going to court and be defending anybody, doing litigation here and there. It is not about money but about personality profiles.”

He says he is interested in politics and would be contesting soon, adding that he would only be back on the big screens if and only if the industry improves.
