Tonto Dikeh Quits Nollywood, Gives Reason by NaijaCover(op): 1:33pm On Aug 19, 2022
Tonto Dikeh has disclosed that she would not be returning to Nollywood after the governorship election in Rivers State.

Recall that the actress was announced as the deputy governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Rivers State.

Speaking with BBC News Pidgin, Tonto said she will not return to acting even if her party loses the governorship election in Rivers State.

When asked if she has completely retired from acting, the mother of one said, “I don’t like movies like that again and it’s been a long time since I acted on screen, you know.

“I’ve acted in about two films in 10 years, I appreciate that my path started from Nollywood, it is something that I respect, but it’s not something that has been in my life.

“So even after the election, it’s not something I’ll return to, but I’ll love to contribute to the industry when I get into power,” Tonto said.


She went ahead to commend her colleagues, Funke Akindele and Banky W for their courage and participation in politics.

“It is not easy for Funke and Banky W at their level to put themselves out there to effect change because criticisms and so many things are involved.

“I believe in Funke, I believe in Banky. With them, I can hold onto something and say I believe that they have a vision for the people,” she said.

Not bad

When last did she appear in a movie?

She needs to quit acting to focus on attacking Churchill and announcing fake endorsement deals

You were never in Nollywood
Re: Tonto Dikeh Quits Nollywood, Gives Reason by festacman(m):
Tonto Dike is already sensing that politics is an easy way to expand social network, cultivate influence and use her charm to secure all KINDS of patronages: appointments, contracts, sexual transactions, etc.

I have a strong feeling that after 2023 election, she will cross over to a bigger party and dig deeper in her hustles.

Well, she has her life to live.

She wants to tow Desmond Elliott's path?

At least Elliott steered clear of drama to boost his credibility but Tonto is displaying an exact opposite.
