Emeka Okoye Reveals How His Physical Appearance Affected His Acting Opportunities
Nigerian actor Emeka Okoye reveals that his physical appearance affected his chances of getting roles in the Nigerian movie industry.
The actor shared that his size prevented some producers from casting him in certain movies. He also mentioned that his faith guides the kind of roles he accepts, adding that he has turned down roles that do not align with his beliefs.
During a recent interview, the actor said, “At the start of my career, I faced the good, the bad, and the ugly. But I never gave up. Then, weeks later, I got a call saying Madam Kemi had picked me for a Netflix role. I screamed, dropped to my knees, and praised God.”
Popular Nigerian streamer, Carter Efe, has expressed excitement after singer Davido gifted him ₦20 million.
It will be recalled that the singer recently appeared on Carter Efe’s show, where his appearance alone broke records. Following the show, Davido promised to gift the streamer ₦20 million—a promise he later fulfilled.
Carter Efe made the announcement on social media, confirming that the money had been received. “Yeeeee Davido 20 million naira, I don die,” he wrote.
Afrobeats singers and celebrity couple, Simi and Adekunle Gold, have announced that they are expecting their second child.
The news was revealed in a music video by Adekunle Gold, which featured his family. The couple later took to social media to share the video, sparking excitement among fans and loved ones, who flooded the comment section with congratulatory messages.
