Why I Acted One Movie And Ran From Nollywood – Simi

Popular Nigerian singer, Simisola Kosoko has opened up on the reason she dumped Nollywood after featuring in one movie.

The mother of one spoke on her acting career during an interview with Cool FM while discussing her judging role in Nigerian Idol, family and work.

She was asked why she acted one movie ”Mokalik ” and resigned from the industry, replying she said acting does not excite her as much as music.

She said: “I’m not as crazy about acting as I am about music to be honest, but it’s something that it’s exciting to do once in a while. People have mentioned it to me so maybe when I’m not busy. I’ll try to do more.”

The 2019 film explored the career of an 11 year old boy, Jaiye, who spends most of the day as a lowly apprentice at a mechanic workshop. Simisola played ‘simi’, daughter of a cafeteria owner.
