Nollywood actor turned politician, Augustine
Ejike Metu, aka Methuselah in a recent
interview made some shocking revelation
that happens about some movie producers
industry.
The actor who used to be popular revealed
why he stopped acting saying:
“It got to a point in the industry where
some producers took pictures of actors to
native doctors to know whether their faces
will sell films. As someone who is not
diabolical, I was not comfortable with that.
So, I decided to step aside. Also, at a point,
producers became lords. They were so
greedy and myopic that they released ten
films in a week with the same faces.
In fact, they continued to repeat these
films. And being someone that is not too
desperate in the things of life, I did not
need to lick the ass of the producers.
Meanwhile, I was already into clearing and
forwarding business before becoming an
actor and I was very much engaged in my
business. So, I decided to face my clearing
and forwarding business and other things.
But that does not mean I stopped acting
entirely.
He has featured in movies like ‘Rattle
Snake,’ ‘Up to Rush,’ ‘Farewell to Babylon,’
‘The Night Fall’ and others and at the time
was rated one of the top actors in
Nollywood.
