Find out in our Annie Idibia biography.
Early life and family
Annie Macaulay, now known as Annie
Macaulay-Idibia, was born on November 13, 1984 in Eket, Akwa Ibom,
Nigeria. Her zodiac sign is Scorpio.
In her early days, she used to live with her
family in Ibadan. Her mother was a housewife, while her father worked at
Mobil. She grew up with two older and one younger brother. When she was
about 10 years old, her parents got divorced. The children stayed with
the mother, who went to work at Mobil as a cook. Financial situation
significantly worsened.
After that, the family moved, first to Jakande
Estate, then to Thomas estate in Lekki, Lagos. At the age of 15, Annie
lost one her brothers (the youngest one) to tuberculosis.
Deciding that she wanted to help her mother in
keeping the family on its feet, Annie started working as soon as she got
out of high school. Before getting into a university, she used to work
as a salesperson in a shop, as well as at two other spots.
She did not abandon her job even when studying at
the Lagos State University. There, she received a degree in Computer
Science. After that, she got into the University of Lagos, where she
received her Theatre Arts degree.
