I’m Still Not Rich By Nigeria’s Standards – Jide Kosoko

Veteran actor Jide Kosoko shares his thoughts on his over 60-year career in Nollywood, revealing that despite his fame, he hasn’t achieved significant wealth by Nigerian standards.

He spoke in an interview on The Honest Bunch podcast.

The 71-year-old Kosoko, who began his acting career as a child actor in 1964, has appeared in hundreds of Nollywood movies.

Despite his success, Kosoko remains humble and grateful for the opportunity to do what he loves.

“I have been in this [movie] industry for this long. I thank God that I can eat three square meals. But can I claim to be a rich man by Nigerian standards? No,” he said.
