The Miami-Dade County has honoured yet another distinguished Nigerian actor; and this time it is Nollywood actor, Chinedu Ikedieze.
He posted photos of the plaque, key, and other souvenir received on Instagram. He was full of appreciation to the mayor, Carlos A. Gimenez and the county commissioner Audrey M. Edmonson for honouring him as a “Distinguished visitor to the city of Miami, Florida”. He also admonished fans on the importance of self-confidence in achieving success.
It would be the 2nd time this year that the Miami, Florida County of Miami-Dade would be honouring a Nigerian actor. The first was Sope Aluko. 10th of April has been labelled as “Sope Aluko Day” due to her role in Marvel’s blockbuster movie, Black Panther. Aluko has also acted in other top Hollywood films including Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Army Wives, Identity Thief and Pitch Perfect 2. She hopes to one day expand her acting to Nollywood.
