CASH MADAM - TONTO DIKEH

CASH MADAM Tonto Dikeh, also known as Tonto Dike (born June 9, 1985) is a Nigerian actress from Rivers State and is of the Ikwerre. tribe Dikeh is from a family of seven.

In 2005 she competed against other contestants on a reality TV show called The Next Movie Star; she was the first runner up. Dikeh's appearance on the show was as a means of getting closer to the "big time", she says, and her start in the Nigerian Movie Industry came soon after. Nollywood, as it is colloquially known, is second only to the Indian film Indusrty in number of movies produced each year.

Dikeh says that after her second movie Holy Cross, more movie directors and producers were willing to cast her, and she has appeared in scores of movies since. Dikeh's role in the movie Dirty Secret has generated controversy amongst Nigerians, because the movie contains nude scenes. While some criticize her role of being untraditional and un-African, others say that Dikeh is merely being professional.

Cash Madam Patience Ozokwor, aka MAMA G, is a well known face in the Nigerian home video industry. The talented actress from Enugu-Ngwo, Enugu State, whom everybody loves because of her notable interpretation of roles, expressive character in all levels of action on set is undoubtedly outstanding. 

BEFORE ACTING
She was an announcer with Radio Nigeria, Enugu, but always had loved for the entertainment, but after what she would call retrenchment from active service, she went full swing into acting and that was in 1997 she says " I have never looked back since, the retrenchment was a package of blessing and challenge that ushered me into a new life"

BECOMING AN ACTRESS

She stated "It felt like I was a lady that made love for the first time after getting married; the excitement and the anticipation that the first night always comes with, the trepidation that comes with it, the pains that followed it. I later became pregnant, the most critical period is the nine months I carried the baby in the womb," she eventually put to birth. " the same thing happens in the acting world" 

Nigeria is a land full of abundant blessings from it's unstoppable resources to its flawless engrossing of beautiful  women of this motherland. Among these women, we look at the socially recognized and politically engaged, bringing substance into the community with their reputation and their intent which drives their motivation to fulfill the qualities that life has to share with the people of Nigeria.
A woman of vision, a woman of substance, a businesswoman, she makes decisions that delivers effective response, she is a mother she is a go-getter, independent, healthy, and a money maker, flamboyant with the high party life, in some cases she is known as mama benz in most cases she is CASH MADAM

Here is a definition of a NIGERIAN CASH MADAM  


There's no second guessing the fact that Nigeria breeds the most finest cash madams in the world, evidently from the corporate business world, to the media and entertainment industry the cash madams of Nigeria are on the rise enterprising greatness and success in all areas and aspects of their career and day to day lives
