Nigerian actor Uzor Arukwe has shared a deeply personal insight into his journey in the film industry, revealing that his father is yet to fully accept his career choice.
Speaking candidly, the actor disclosed that although his father is aware of his involvement in acting, he has remained reluctant to acknowledge it as reality. According to Arukwe, this denial has been a lingering challenge despite his growing presence in the entertainment space.
“My father doesn’t know that I’m an actor. He has heard, but he doesn’t want to believe it, but it’s my truth,” he said.
The actor further explained that his mother initially struggled to come to terms with his career path as well, largely due to her husband’s stance. However, over time, she became more accepting and supportive of his decision to pursue acting professionally.
