I grew tired of being in movies that had no message – Bimbo Akintola

Nollywood Actress, Bimbo Akintola has explained why she has been off our screens in recent times.
The actress whom many thought had stopped acting recently returned in the Ebola movie ’93 Days’ where she played late Nigerian heroine Dr Adadevoh.

Asked if she took time off to rebrand to rebrand, the actress said she only decided to be choosy about scripts.
In her own words, “It is not a matter of rebranding! It is a matter of believing in something. I started talking to myself that I am tired of being in every movie that doesn’t say anything. I decided I want to be part of movies that say something and I choose my script now. We as actors have a duty to Nigeria, because we are known, so people use that popularity to make a difference. So with me, I am only doing stories that mean something to me.”
She also revealed she took a break to work on her physique at her local gym.

At a point in their creamier than cream relationship, the duo were virtually inseparable, which set tongues wagging that they must have been more than mere friends. While the hint of a relationship was being dropped around, neither Ubi nor Emma saw anything wrong with it. Until the song changed! According to reports, the song changed for them when Ubi Frankin proposed to Nollywood actress, Lilian Esoro, presumably, shunning his ward who has been waiting in the wings for years. The song went from sorry to sad when Emma Nyra reportedly blurted out in an interview that she was never romantically involved with Ubi. Now, the sad song went very bad wh...
