Why I take breaks from Nollywood – Omotola

Veteran Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, has opened up about her periodic breaks from Nollywood.

Omotola, known otherwise as Omosexy, spoke about abandoning her acting career in a post on her Instagram page.

She revealed that she takes deliberate breaks to unwind and rejuvenate after years of work.

“I know many don’t understand why I take time off movies for a few years and then come back again.

“I have seen fans asking when I’ll return to the screen, but when you have been working since age 15 like I have, you will understand the need to relax, relive, relearn, and recharge. Who gets it and who’s following?

“I visited Nigeria in December last year and left in March after filming two movies in February,” she stated.

Omosexy started her acting career at age 15, and made her Nollywood debut as the leading actress in ‘Venom of Justice’ in 1995.
