In the world of entertainment, certain partnerships become so iconic that they are forever etched in the minds of fans. Nigerian actors Osita Iheme and Chinedu Ikedieze, popularly known as ‘Aki’ and ‘PawPaw’ are a prime example.

Their on-screen chemistry and comedic timing have left an indelible maker on the Nigerian movie fraternity and beyond, earning them a dedicated global following. However, despite their inseperable personas, Chinedu recently clarified that he and Osita Iheme are not twins in real life.

According to him, many people think he is the twin brother of his longtime friend and collaborator, adding that reason for this misconception is because of their similar height and the mischievous roles they often play in movies.

In the actor’s own words, “Whenever people want to see one of us, they would always want to see the two of us because they have that imagination of our mischievousness in the movies playing out in real life in their mindset”.

The movie star further made known that  they both have different personalities and interests and are not twins.

“As much as we play together, I have some qualities or traits that differentiate me a little bit, he has his own too that differentiates him a little bit from me when it comes to some things.”

Ikedieze concluded  that he is not bothered by the misconception. He further stated that he is grateful for the love and support that their fans have shown them over the years.
