Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye, |
Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye, the former Minister of Women Affairs and Social Development, is making a return to Nollywood with the debut of her new movie, “Hatred”.
Appointed as Minister of Women Affairs by President Bola Tinubu on August 21, 2023, Kennedy-Ohanenye’s tenure was cut short when she was dismissed along with four other ministers on October 23, 2024.
Following her departure from office, the 51-year-old has resumed her career in the Nigerian film industry. On Wednesday, February 5, 2025, Kennedy-Ohanenye announced the release of “Hatred” via a post on X (formerly Twitter).
She has previously appeared in films such as ‘Saving My Marriage’, ‘Hunting the Angel’, ‘Royal Ploy’, and ‘The Cow Girls’.
Kennedy-Ohanenye has worked with big names in the industry like Segun Arinze, Ngozi Ezeonu, Linda Osifo, and Francis Duru, among others.
Beyond acting, Kennedy-Ohanenye is a lawyer and entrepreneur. In 2015, she became a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
During the 2023 general elections, she declared her candidacy for presidency, making history as the first woman to do so under the APC.
She later withdrew from the presidential race and publicly endorsed Tinubu.
