Nollywood Actress Tonto Dikeh said she is now totally involved in politics and that she has given up acting.
This was revealed by the movie’s leading lady in a recent BBC Pidgin interview.
When asked if she had totally given up acting or if she intended to do so following her political campaign, she answered:
“I’ve done like two films in 10 years, so you can’t tell me I’m still in the industry. I would always appreciate that it was the industry that my path started from, that my shine started from, it is something that I respect, but it’s not something that has been in my life for a while now. So even after the election, it is not something I plan on bringing back.”
