Reality TV sensation Seyi Awolowo has extended his thanks to film producers for considering him for acting roles, attributing their decisions to his distinctive voice and looks.
Months after publicly apologising for a contentious comment, the two-time Big Brother Naija competitor discussed his career aspirations in an interview with Sunday Scoop.
Expressing his gratitude to producers who have approached him for roles, Seyi acknowledged the influence of his voice and physique on the characters he portrays, recognizing the potential for stereotyping.
Looking ahead, he expressed a desire to tackle more challenging roles, including unexpected characters such as a father figure or a bus conductor.
Seyi, the grandson of the first Western Region premier, Obafemi Awolowo, emphasized that wealth, to him, goes beyond monetary gains.
He described wealth as a combination of financial benefits, networking, and information development that can lead to the acquisition of tangible assets.
Despite not having done many movies to accumulate substantial financial gains, Seyi highlighted the opportunities and valuable connections acting has brought him, emphasizing that wealth is a subjective concept.
