Popular Nollywood actress Destiny Etiko has recounted her experience with a python on a movie set. The curvy actress made the revelation during a recent Instagram live session.
“When I got the role, for, the movie, ‘Idemili’ I was told that I would be carrying a snake. My mother actually encouraged me to take the role. She said the snake would not harm me. I then went ahead to carry the snake.
I was neither the lead nor sub-lead character in the movie though, only had 10 scenes in the movie but they were very significant. It is one movie I cannot forget in a hurry. The snake we used was a python and the good thing is that it is not poisonous, so it was not so difficult for me. But, I was not the only one that carried the snake in the movie.”

“My senior colleague, Eve Esin, also carried a snake. I almost wet my pants when it was dropped on my neck because it was so cold. When we came back on set the next day, they put two snakes on me. And, the funny thing is that the snakes slept off on my body. It was quite a memorable experience.”
The actress revealed that she is not the tough person she portrays in movies portray: “I’m not a tough person. I am actually very soft. My astrological sign is ‘Leo’ and I’m a lioness. I am also a queen. You could see me in action (in movies) and think I am going to kill my husband. But, that cannot happen. ‘Future husband, don’t run away, please. Don’t think I am going to kill you.”
In February, Destiny Etiko trended on the internet after she purchased a brand new Prado SUV.
Instagram blogger Gistloverblog had alleged that the actress’s new car was acquired by a wealthy businessman. The blogger stated that this same man sponsored her late’s dad burial and is already building her a house in Enugu.
Destiny Etiko was quick to debunk the rumours, as she took to Instagram to rain curses on those peddling rumours about her new car. She also swore that she has never met the said businessman.
