I cry watching my ‘wickedness’ in movies - Patience Azokwor

Veteran Nollywood actress, Patience Ozokwor, popularly known as Mama G, says she sometimes weeps watching movies she has acted especially those she played wicked roles.

According to her, she takes solace in the fact that it is not always real but wondered what would have happened if indeed it was.

She has therefore stated that if being a wicked character in movies makes her fans happy, then she is all out of it because they have made her who she is it.

““If I am wicked, it is because you love it. I always want to make you happy and I like those who appreciate what I am doing. I will keep doing it because of you”.

“Nearly all the movies where I played wicked roles made me cry because I remember what that character had done to somebody.

“I do these jobs to the best of ability because I want to sit down at home, watch and cry over what I’m doing to people.

“Two of the roles that caused me the most tears were: one role where I seized the feeding bottle of a month-old-baby and threw it away.

“I wept profusely after that scene that the director had to stop shooting until I was able to control myself. If someone had done it in real life, I would have exposed the fellow to the world to see.

“There was another one where I went to take my sister’s daughter from the village, what I did to the girl, if any human being can do it to a fellow human being, I don’t know what God would do to that person in turn. I met her in the kitchen, beat her so much that she fell down the stairs, rolled down and died from broken head and pains all over.

“When I play the role of a bad woman, I see myself at that instance as a mirror through which I want society to see and appreciate the fact that it is not good to be bad. This is the reason I do it with so much passion that it becomes almost believable.

"I also see such roles as an opportunity to minister to lost and wicked souls that jealousy, hatred, envy and all the likes can only bring one to ruins.” she said.
