Nigerian actor, Timini Egbuson, has claimed to be the Biggest African actor in the world.
He revealed this while being a guest on the most recent episode of the Menisms Podcast. He claimed to have been acting regularly for 15 years and to have influenced many aspiring actors.
Timini Egbuson said, “I have been acting for 15 years consistently. I’ve never had a time off or fall off for 15 years consistently.
“I believe that I genuinely opened up the way for a lot of new school young actors. I also believe that I opened up the leading male young actor category.
“And I said that very humbly because when I joined Nollywood, there were no lead roles for young men. You either had to be an old man or a lady. All the young men that were acting were playing minor roles. Nobody was actively writing lead roles for young men.
“If you put everything that I’ve accomplished together, I believe that I am the biggest actor in Africa.”
