Renowned Nollywood actor Ray Emodi has revealed that he is stepping away from acting, citing personal, family, and health considerations as key factors in his decision.
“I’ve dedicated a lot of time and effort to Nollywood. There was one shoot in a town I won’t name where we could literally hear gunshots. The neighboring area was in chaos, and yet we continued filming,” he recounted.
Emodi explained that family influence played a major role in his choice to leave the industry. “This was not an easy decision. My family holds strong values, and I respect their wishes. I don’t want to do anything that might tarnish our name,” he added.
While stepping back from acting, Emodi acknowledged the positive experiences he has had in Nollywood, admitting that he recently turned down multiple film offers. He also revealed plans to focus on music, announcing that he has already released a new project.
