“I was fired from my job and I didn’t get a movie role for almost two years; I was desperate…” —Uzor

Uzor Arukwe is one of the finest actors in Nollywood, period. Even when he has been typecast, he manages to shine and be taken very seriously as an actor. He gives me an exclusive: He was fired from Etisalat (he says even his mom doesn’t know!) and had absolutely nothing in the world to hold on to, his previous foray into movies had failed, and he didn’t know what to do. From November 2012, to November 2013 he had no job, and no one was calling him for any film role. One day, after everyone had left to work and his compound was quiet… he went down on his knees and prayed desperately to God for a big break in his movie career. As he was praying, a phone call shortened his prayer… and it was the director, Jade Osiberu calling about his big break ‘Sugar Rush’. Kasa! You HAVE to hear this testimony as he tells it. This was a bad-ass episode of testimonies, overcoming trial, how he survived being fired just as he was going to be made a manager, and why his father still doesn’t know he is an actor till today.
