Veteran Nollywood actor, Bob Manuel, has shockingly revealed that unlike many misleading debate on true legends in the movie industry, he has stayed longer in acting than Pete Edochie.
He stated this in an interview in Igbo language.
This is coming just days after another veteran, Yemi Solade, affirmed that he is more Nollywood than majority as far as years on set is concerned.
“Peter Edochie is not the oldest man in Nollywood, as he is parading himself and deceiving others. I have been in Nollywood longer than him, though he is older than me in age. I laugh at most of my colleagues in the South-East because none of them studied theatre arts,” Bob Manuel said.
