In other entertainment news, Nollywood legend, Patience Ozokor, has said younger entertainers do not need to relocate to Abuja or Lagos to become a star in the Nigerian movie industry.
She made the comment on Tuesday night in Enugu during a candle light procession in honour of Madam Peace Anyiam-Osigwe, the late Chief Executive Officer and founder, Africa Movie Academy Awards.
Ozokwor encouraged up-and-coming thespians by saying that many actors and actresses started their careers in Enugu but relocated to Abuja and Lagos the moment they became stars and forgot their roots.
Using herself as an example, she said; “For me, I said I am going to stay in Enugu, inside the village and when I go to Lagos, I tell them I am a village woman. I stay at Ngwo in Udi Local Government Area of Enugu State and God has shown me that you can become a star from anywhere. You don’t need to be in Lagos or Abuja”.
The veteran actress further said; “If you are good enough, they will call you even from America.”
