Yoruba actor, Muyiwa Ademola reveals why Nollywood stars are dying
By Rita Chioma,
At least four actors have died in Nollywood, in the space of a month, Moji Olaiya being the most recent.
However in a chat with Punch.ng, ace actor and film maker, Muyiwa Ademola, revealed the leading cause of death among actors.
According to him, “A very big problem we have in our industry is that we work round the clock, we spend nights at movie locations but we don’t go for medical check-up.
I have a doctor and I go for medical check-up every three weeks. I know when to take some days off work. For instance, if I work for about two weeks, I take a few days off to relax. I would just eat and rest.
I also make sure I go on vacations and all I do in those times is just to eat and sleep. Most of the deaths in the movie industry are a result of accumulated stress without paying attention to one’s health.”
