At some point in his life he saw a play that literally turned his life around and he realised what you watch can actually change you and he decided to want to be the reason someone didn't give up, to inspire people through the characters he plays.
In 2014, he took a bold step in bringing this dream of his to life through the help of a friend that saw this passion he has and persuaded him to go audition for the 'Next Movie Star' reality show and he bought the form for him. Chimezie attended the auditions in Abuja and got selected into the Lagos house where they were contestants from all over Africa, he was in the reality show for a month, he got a lot of acting trainings and at the end of the show he was a runner up.
After that a lot changed for Chimezie, his attention was drawn to screen acting as against the stage background he is coming from and he fell in love with screen acting. He had his screen acting debut same year in 2014, when he featured in a movie titled 'Learning Curve' along side Ivie Okujaye, Jim Iyke and Chuks Chyke, it was directed by Ndu Scott.

Chimezie is goal driven, spontaneous, he believes he is weirdly creative, he is a goal getter that has no time for pity parties, and always has a positive energy with an appetite to learn and be a better version of himself.
Surpassingly, he was a member of a dance group called 'The Revelations, he is a dancer, a choreographer and he sings!!!
