Former Big Brother Naija Housemate, Tsakute Jonah, better known as Saskay, is more than just a beautiful face from Africa’s most popular reality TV show. This talented, dark-skinned star in an interview with The Entertainer reveals her relationship status, her exciting career plans, and many other fascinating aspects of her life.
I’ve been influencing full-time-lifestyle, fashion – just doing a little bit of everything. But recently I decided to dive into fashion influencing a bit more and that’s just because I think I finally found my style, and I’m ready to put it out there.
Everyone is talking fashion this season in Nigeria. What’s new and impressive in fashion that many don’t know?
Like I said, I’ve been able to find my style. I would describe my style as Androgenous Afrofusion, which is basically being able to fuse both masculine and feminine outfits, African prints and all of that. At first, I was a little bit scared seeing that if I’m wearing masculine outfits, people might see me in a different light, but then I realised that it’s fashion, it’s okay.
What’s the next step for you in life, not just career?
New Year, new goals. I really want to go back to school. I have been wanting to do my master’s for a while, but there have been a few challenges here and there. I am kind of a bookworm, I love school. So being away from it feels like something is missing in me. So, for now, the only thing I’m sure of is that I want to go back to school. I’m not sure what I will do, I just want to go back to school. I might do media and communications if I want to continue in this craft. That is to solidify my stand as an influencer, but I really want to work behind the scenes more. But at the same time, my first love is applied intelligence. Let’s God has installed for me next year.
What other talents do you have?
I’m an artist, not a lot of people know that because I don’t really put a lot out there. It’s also because I’m not monetising it. It’s something I just do when I’m bored, something I do for fun. I’m also a dancer. I used to be a choreographer a few years ago. I may have lost a little bit of it, but I’m trying to get back there. It’s also something I just did for fun, not really to monetise it, and I want to keep it that way you know. I have things I’ll do for work and I have things I’ll do for fun.
