Popular Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has revealed why he considers himself a bigger actor than his colleague, Zubby Michael.
During a recent interview with Cool FM, the 36-year-old actor stated that he has more blockbuster movies than Zubby.
The discussion arose from a heated debate between Timini and Zubby on the top actor in Africa during the first episode of the Prime Video original reality show, ‘Ebuka Turns Up Africa.’ While handing out gifts to fellow stars on the show, Timini bragged about being the biggest actor out of Africa, leading to a response from Zubby claiming he could buy Timini.
In the recent interview, Timini emphasized his relevance and consistency in the movie industry, stating that he has more box office movies and is statistically the biggest actor in Nollywood. He mentioned some of his notable roles in top-grossing movies like ‘A Tribe Called Judah,’ ‘Tinsel,’ ‘Breaded Life,’ ‘Hey You,’ and more.
In his words, “If you watch the show right, I was not talking about Zubby, I consider myself the biggest actor every day. It was not about Zubby, I’m the biggest actor in Africa”.
“Statistically speaking, in terms of quality of movies that we shoot, the range of movies that we shoot, the number of movies that we shot, the box office movies, popularity among industry peers, years of relevant and years of consistency, there is no way Zubby will score higher than me”.
