That is certainly the best way to describe Tume Balon Fadiya, one of Cameroon's elderly actresses who inspire many young girls aspiring to get into the film industry.

In 2003, Nollywood actress, Patient Ozokwo, another elderly actress of great repute discovered these skills. "She asked me to get into acting with no reservation and forge ahead even if there was little or no money in the industry yet," she reveals.

Since then, Reme, as she is sometimes called has been active, giving out her best. Her thrilling performance is definitely what makes the following Zoomers Pictures movies exciting: Public Order (2006), Taboo (2007), Muele (2008) and The Match (2008).
