Actress Bisola Aiyeola has disclosed that she declined acting opportunities in the Nigerian film business due to her child.
The actress revealed in an interview with Nollywire that raising a child alone in Nigeria has presented difficulties for her in the process of growing.
“I have a growing child and sometimes some of the roles you take can affect her positively or negatively. Especially because she is growing…You have other children around her who have different thoughts on what their parents do and so I have to be careful with some stories because I have to think that, in the long run, would it be a good look for my child?'” she said.
The actress also described her journey thus far as one driven by passion. In her words: “A lot of people who probably discovered me would think I just got into the industry but it has been so many years of hard work and passion for the craft…I think I will always stay hungry for more and that’s what keeps pushing me.”
The Africa Magic Viewers Choice (AMVCA) trailblazer winner for 2018 has a couple of features currently making rounds. They include Flawsome 2 currently streaming on the new Showmax app,Skinny Girl In Transitseason seven on the Ndani TV YouTube page and the upcoming Kayode Kasum movieAjosepo.
