Ego Boyo, a seasoned Nollywood actress and producer, has denied the widely circulated rumor that her spouse prevented her from performing.
Speaking in a video of her newest interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo on Wednesday, Ego revealed why she abandoned acting despite fame.
Ego claimed that her decision to stop participating in films was a personal one, defying the widespread belief that her husband placed limitations on her.
“I left acting when I found out that I enjoyed producing more than acting. It was boring. The blogs wanted it to be something like my husband banned me from it, they wanted it to be sensational and it was not.”
The 56-year-old, who began performing in the early 1980s, rose to fame after appearing in the early 1990s television series Checkmate.
