Early this year, prolific Nollywood director Kunle Afolayan took to
his Facebook page to express his frustration about Nigeria and his plans
to relocate as he could no longer bear the hardship.
Well, it looks like he’s made up his mind to really relocate. In a
recent interview with Netng, he said he has been diagnosed with
hypertension and must relocate. When asked if his relocation would not
discourage those who are looking up to him, Kunle said:
“I have been diagnosed with hypertension, so I should stay here and
die because I want to impress people? It isn’t about people anymore. It
is now about me and my health. I have proven that certain things can be
done in this country but you have to use blood and sweat. All the
projects I have done, I have had to use these two. For me to achieve
this, whoever is ready to use blood and sweat too might be able to
achieve same feat. But we don’t have the same strength. Right now I am
overwhelmed in a way and I can function from anywhere. I can go to
Hollywood and be lecturing African cinema or go to Gambia and be making
film or move to Ghana. I love this country which is why I am still here.
I discourage people form traveling abroad but health is wealth. I think
it is important that I am in the right frame of mind for health
reasons” he said.
