Ikeduba received both primary and secondary school education in Lagos State, but, in bid to obtain a university degree, he relocated to Benin city, a southern geopolitical zone of Nigeria where he applied to the University of Benin to study economics.

He described his venture into the Nigerian movie industry as a coincidence as he initially only wanted to accompany a friend to an audition for actors but on reaching their destination he decided to audition also and was successful as he was called back and given a movie role.

Ikeduba's ability to understand and communicate in all three major languages in Nigeria has been pivotal to his career, a fact he has acknowledged and spoken about.

[5] Ikeduba has been stereotyped in the Nigerian movie industry as a “Bad Boy” which he attributed to his appearance.

Hence in almost all the movies he has featured in, he was always the antagonist or as the Nigerian media puts it “The Bad Boy”.
