A budding actor, Clinton Joshua, has said that his priority is to grow in his acting career rather than being famous.
Recalling how he started his career, he told Sunday Scoop, “I only started acting in September 2023. I was discovered by a director, Ben Cassie, on Instagram. The movie that brought me to the limelight was When Angels Meet. I acted with Precious Akaeze, Chioma Edak, Emeka Eze, Oscar Nwabaju and others. And, it was interesting.
“I won’t say I am famous. A couple of people know me but either way, I am not too concerned about fame. I am just focused on acting and my business.
“I believe that my generation of actors would take the industry to the next level; to a place where Westerners would buy tickets to watch our movies.”
Reliving his character of Jidenna in the movie, Treasures in the Sky, the actor said, “Jidenna is a really nice guy; too nice, some might say. He takes nothing to heart, is always happy and smiling, always trying to spread love around. I love the reaction of people towards the character. I appreciate the love and embrace it. It makes me want to do better.”
