Reports
say Ghanaian actress Leonora Okine is homesick after staying in Nigeria for
several months for a movie.
The
actress, on Thursday, posted tweets about how she missed her best meal, Ga Kenkey
with okro stew.
“Charley,
how can I? I'm getting a panic attack over not eating kenkey this long. I could
pass out! Lol,” she tweeted.
Sources
close to the actress told NEWS-ONE, “Leonora has a great obsession for eating Ga
kenkey with okro stew that has fish, meat, wele, crabs and snails in it. She can do anything for it. No wonder she is
tweeting about it in public.”
Leo
has been shooting in Nigeria for months now and is currently Ghana’s sensation
on ‘Tinsel’. She is doing great and
expectations are that she sustains the standard she has built for herself.
Apart
from acting, Leonora is a mobile content solutions consultant.
She
is best known for her roles as Natasha in ‘Different Shades of Blue’ (2006),
Stephanie in ‘Desperation’ Season 1 and 2 (2010) and Angela in ‘Tinsel’ since
2012.
She
was born in Accra to Leo Aye Okine from Dawu Akwapim in the Eastern Region of
Ghana and Francisca Bortey from Nungua, a suburb of Ghana’s capital, Accra.
She
is the fourth of eight children; five brothers and three sisters. She is not
married.
Growing
up, she wanted to become a neurosurgeon; hence she read Science at St. Mary’s
Secondary School and pursued a course in Biological Science at the University
of Ghana, Legon. She later enrolled at Ghana Institute of Management and Public
Administration (GIMPA) to read Operations and Project Management. But today she
finds herself in the creative arts industry.
