Nollywood actor, Emeka Enyiocha who has
shutdown his beer parlour, and consequently staged a comeback to his
first love-acting, after many years of staying off the stage has
explained why he did so.
The playboy actor was spotted at the
birthday party of Fidelis Duker's wife, Temitope, which held last
Sunday, at their Lekki, Lagos residence, and he was ready to share
his story with anyone that cares to listen to him.
Enyiocha disappeared from the screen
few years back to open a beer parlour, in Surulere. The beer parlour
was bubbling until recently, when he decided to shut it down.
Explaining to Nollynow, why he
shutdown the beer parlour, Enyiocha, who dressed in traditional
Arabian garment, said, “I don't want to work for other people to
eat.” According to him, the people he entrusted the business into
the hands were mismanaging it, forcing him to close it down. He said
he has no regret operating a beer parlour.
On why he disappeared from the screen,
the handsome actor said he left the industry because of his family.“I
left the industry because I got married and started having kids. I
had more responsibilities to deal with. I needed to be closer to my
family and kids so that they would not call me uncle when they see
me. Marriage and family slowed me down. It definitely slows someone
down except you do not want to take care of your family,” he
explained. Interestingly, the actor is back on big screen to continue
from where he stopped. He's currently jumping from location to
another, reuniting with his kindred spirits and doing what he knows
how to do best.
