Ghanaian media personality and actress Nikoletta Samonas, popularly known as Nikki Samonas, has returned to mainstream television as the new host of Joy Prime’s afternoon lifestyle and entertainment show, Changes.
With nearly two decades of experience in Ghana’s entertainment industry, Nikki said she is excited to take on the new role, describing television as a natural extension of her career while reaffirming that acting remains her greatest strength.
During her debut edition of Changes, Nikki Samonas expressed confidence in her ability to take on new roles and responsibilities, emphasising that although acting remains her primary career, her transition into television hosting further demonstrates her versatility.
“I know my strength, but that doesn’t mean that those other ones that I can do, I shouldn’t pursue them or acknowledge them or work on them or make money from them. My strength is acting, but I can do other things,” she said.
She also shared what viewers should expect from her presentation style.
“People should expect a free spirit, full of fun, and light-hearted, but I don’t joke about my business. I can be light-hearted and bubbly when I’m not in the seat. I’m different when hosting. I’ve told the producers that I want my Fridays on this show to be very light, very happy, very musical, and very juicy. So I want a lot of audience on Fridays to come, and let’s chill, enjoy and have fun.”
Born to a Greek father and a Ghanaian mother, Nikki Samonas broke into the movie industry in 2006 with roles in Beyoncy and Mummy’s Daughter. Before venturing into acting, she was widely recognised for appearing in television commercials.
