Chief Zebrudaya Goes Back to School at 64

Renowned actor and comedian Chief Chika
Okpala, aka Chief Zebrudaya Okoroigwe
Nwogbo alias 4:30, is back to being a
student. He was among the 700 students who
matriculated last weekend at the Enugu Study
Centre of the National Open University of
Nigeria (NOUN).

Explaining his decision to go back to school
at 64, Chief Zebrudaya told journalists that
it stemmed from his belief that “age is no
barrier to education”. Though it won't make
him abandon his ‘Zebrudaya language’, he has
decided to enrol for the Master of Business
Management to be able to manage himself.

Chief Zebrudaya said:
As long as you can feel, as long as you
can understand and practicalise you are
qualified at any time to go in and read to
better your education. Since Information
and Communication Technology (ICT) is
now in vogue, whether you like it or not,
you must go back to school to learn it.

Yes, I might have made a mark in
entertainment industry but that is
entertainment, this is management.
Nobody is managing me so I decided to
go and read management to be able to
manage myself."
