Nollywood actor, Muyiwa Ademola has revealed the major reason why most Nollywood actors die.
In a chat with PUNCH, Muyiwa says leading cause of death among actors is the inability for them to go for medical checkups due to their busy schedule day and night.
In the space of a month, at least four actors have died in Nollywood, the most recent being Moji Olaiya. No doubt, this is currently a sad time for the movie industry.
According to him, most of these deaths are caused by accumulated stress and could be avoided if one takes care of the body.
“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.”
Thanks bro. You have said it all. No proper medical check ups. But they have time to travel out. It all bouys down to priority. Check out. …..Most of these death are cause by health related issues, not car accident, or plane crash. Pls I beg everyone to take their health issues serious, now that they are young, not when they are getting old, because by then it might be too late.
