Veteran Nollywood actor, Bimbo Manuel, has claimed that most of his colleagues flaunting Range Rovers and living in luxurious mansions in Lagos are living a fake life.
Naija News reports that the thespian spoke while featuring in a recent episode of the TVC programme, Your View.
According to Manuel, no Nollywood star can buy Range Rover from acting fees.
The 66-year-old said he does not care about living a flamboyant lifestyle because he likes “a humble and realistic life”.
He said, “The actors you see flaunting Range Rovers and mansions in Ikoyi are living fake lives.
“No actor in Nigeria would say he or she can buy a Range Rover from acting fees alone.”
