"A man does not go to the native doctor to inquire about his good fortune.. I will leave you to interpret that in whichever way suits you.. I am a blessed man..
I have seen success in the movie industry, I am well respected and my kids are also doing excellent.
So, what more can I ask for??
Things Fall Apart was the very first movie that brought me to limelight and made me what I am today. It made me know throughout the industry.
I can never forget that movie because it holds so many good memories. Rest in peace Sam Loco and Justice Esiri. Yes, they were my co-stars in that movie although a lot of you do not know. Hahaha, I don't blame you though. Most of you were still kids. Nkem Owoh.. Yes, Osuofia, was also in that movie.
But do you also know I was criticized for the role I played.
A lot of people said I was too "light" to be playing the role of Okonkwo. But look how it turned out .
So concerning Idris Elba, I believe he will flourish as he is a wonderful actor.
People must say negative things about you. It is part of life.
He has my blessing, not that he needs it though. This is also a very good way to promote African culture"
