In another video circulating online, Anunobi was in tears as she shared how her father treated her simply because she was a girl.
She stated that her father did not believe in educating girls, thinking they would eventually go to their husbands’ houses. As a result, he refused to send her to school.
She recalled that when her friends got into school, she had to start three months later. Even then, she had to fund her own education by doing modeling to pay her bills.
Locked up for six months
Anunobi also stated that after completing her schooling, her father locked her in her room for six months because she refused to work for him. She described being treated like a prisoner, with her mother bringing food to her locked room daily.

Her father once slid an agreement under the door, asking her to promise not to work in an office, but she refused.
Her father’s change
Later, after Eucharia Anunobi became established and traveled to London, she received an award, which she proudly showed her father. Anunobi recalled that for the first time, her father hugged her, acknowledging that she had not disgraced him despite not following his wishes.
According to the actress, her father prayed over her, asking that no one would overshadow her glory, and began praising her achievements.
