• The actress, in an interview with Potpourri, stated that she screened songs for promotions but wouldn’t promote s*x-related songs, as everyone has their style.

• The actress, who grew up in Oba, Anambra and attended NYSC in Lagos, shared her experiences as a dark-skinned actress in Nollywood.

Amarachi Okoh, a prominent Nigerian content creator and actress known as Marahchi or Ada Igbo Nile, has firmly opposed the promotion of sexual content within the entertainment sector.

In a recent interview with Potpourri, she expressed, “I even screen the songs artists bring for promotions. If it’s a sx-related song, I won’t promote it. There are other creators who would do that; everyone has their style. I cannot endorse a sx enhancement brand.”

The actress, originally from Enugu and raised in Oba, Anambra, before relocating to Lagos for her National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), shared her insights regarding her experiences in Nollywood as a dark-skinned actress.

“Being a dark-skinned girl, I don’t think my complexion influences the roles they give me. I feel it’s all about the talent,” she said.

Marahchi also elaborated on her limits concerning intimate scenes in films.

“I haven’t kissed in a movie yet, and I don’t think I can. It’s because of my personality and the kind of family I come from,” she emphasized, underscoring her commitment to her principles within the industry.

Her decision to abstain from sexual content or scenes reflects a strong adherence to her personal values, distinguishing her as a performer with well-defined boundaries in a demanding industry.
