Prince who had contested in some pageants revealed he is a Pure Physics graduate from the University of Calabar.

Explaining how he delved into entertainment despite having a science background, he said:

“I like science, I like to study stuff and read a whole lot on a normal day. The whole modelling and acting was a passion i had. I always wanted to be on TV. So I was like, why can’t I do both? I don’t have to use my degree. The way the world is going now, you can make money off your talent. Entertainment was a passion I had and I’m happy I’m living the dream now.”

Prince whose calm and collected nature in the house earned him the love of many people pointed out that it wasn’t a strategy for him as he was simply being himself during his time in the house.

“Me in the house was 100% per cent who I am. I didn’t go in there with any strategy because one thing I learnt from watching this show over the years is fact that you don’t want to go into the house with a strategy. You can’t pretend for that long. Someway, somehow, you’ll slip up.

“And if you leave the house, you’ll have to continue with whatever character you portrayed in the house. So for me, I was 100% myself in the house. My friends and family know this. I’m the same person in the house that I was even before I went into the house.”
