Despite rising to fame through BBNaija, Okagbue confessed that the expectations to maintain a public persona clash with her personal preferences.

In her words;

I hate crowds, I hate facing cameras and faking a smile, and I dislike socializing. I don’t have social anxiety disorder cause I don’t care about being judged by others but I hate being watched. Everyone around me wants me to keep making appearances and try to stay relevant but I really do not care. I just want my work to speak for me, be happy and rich. What do I do?”
