Popular actress, Tonto Dikeh has stated that she is determined to rule Nigeria in the future.

The 36-year-old film star made her plans known in a post shared on her Instagram page.

The mother of one also accompanied the post with some photographs of her in what appeared to be a leadership academy.

“Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today,” she wrote.

“Back to school, I am determined to rule this country someday. I am in the process [of getting] the quality of life I want.”

This is not the first time the actress will be opening up about her intention to go into politics.

Recall that in July 2020, Dikeh had explained why she hasn’t taken movie roles over the years and her dream to become a senator or governor.

“I can do it. I’m in the process; I’ve started. I’ve been watching the grounds. I’m not going to be identifying with any political party at the moment until 2023,” she had said.

Dikeh recently called on young Nigerians to shun illegal means of leaving the country, adding that they could also become successful in Nigeria.

” You can only use your lifestyle to be an ambassador for younger girls. These girls are desperate to leave the country. But, I have never lived outside Nigeria and I don’t intend to leave the country. I am extremely successful, and that is not because I lived outside Nigeria. It was because I knew who I wanted to be.”
