In an interview – the actress being a mother of one – Elizabeth Omowunmi Tekovi Da Silva also popular with the name Liz Da-Silva – spoke about the challenges a mother has to face without a husband.
The Questions she was asked by the host.
Can you tell us your marital status at the moment?
She said she was single but although not looking for a partner.
How do you feel being a single mother?
She said the experience was good and ok – infact, her son encourages her and makes her life better.
So, being a single mother is not a big deal?
Being a mother is not impossible however – a man is hugely needed to help her through her life.
But we believe one day, you will give marriage a shot?
She said “Yes, if God wants it, I will embrace it because every woman wants to be under a man, every woman wants to be called a Mrs. So, if the right man comes today, I tell you the next day, wedding preparation begins.”
Does that mean it’s difficult to find the right man?
Her answer was negative because she thinks finding the right man isn’t the hardest things on planet.
The belief out there is that behind the success of every actress is a man, does that apply to you also?
I am an actress, and as an actress, you must have an angel behind you. Not only me, a lot of my colleagues are also doing fine, including our male counterparts. To me, it’s just God. What you need is just set your priority right and go for it. With God, all things are possible.
Are you now saying there’s no man behind your success?
Yes, everything I have achieved so far is God. And I will continue to give Him the glory. So, that’s the secret of my success.
How would you assess your annual show, now tagged Afrikulture Entertainment which held on Tuesday, December 27, 2016?
It has been my yearly event and it takes place every December. The last edition held on Tuesday, December 27, 2017 and it was a huge success. It’s a show I dedicate all my time and best to because of the creativity involved.
It is just to make us happy, not me alone. And at the same time to reach out to the needy which is even the main purpose of the event. So, I thank God for the success of the whole thing because everything went according to plan. The turnout was massive and with quality quests.
It’s former Ankara Day, but it has been rebranded. What informed this decision?
Yes, it all started as Ankara Day but now it’s called Afrikulture Entertainment. The reason for the rebranding is because I later came to realize that a lot of people are also tagging their shows Ankara this, Ankara that.
So, I want mine to be well known, like this is for Liz Da Silva. It’s still the same event, all I did was that I just change the name to Afrikulture also because of the passion I have for African culture, which the show also projects.
