As biggest actor in Africa, I can buy Timini Egbuson – Zubby Michael boasts

•Zubby and Timini

Popular Nollywood actor, Zubby Michael has declared he is the biggest actor in Africa after displacing his colleague, Timini‘s claims.

The duo, in the first episode of the Prime Video original reality show. ‘Ebuka Turns up Africa’, engaged in a heated debate on who the biggest actor in Africa is.

While handing gifts to fellow stars of the show, Egbuson bragged about being the biggest actor out of Africa, which didn’t sit well with his colleague, Michael.

He said: “I was coming from Paris and we had to do this thing in the festivals, obviously being the best actor in Africa…I have been acting for about 13 years now and I’ve won awards. I’ve done everything basically and I believe I am the best.”

Michael inferred, “Stop f**king playing, he’s kidding. It’s not coming from a place of pride but I’m the biggest actor in Africa.”

He continued: “Let me tell you why I’m bigger than Timini, if Timini crosses Shagamu, nobody knows him and I’m not abusing you. Your fame ends in Lekki but I’ve conquered the YouTube market, the DVD market, and now cinemas.”

Timini Interjected saying, “You literally act the same character in every movie my bro. How can you be bigger than me?”

To which Michael said, “Again, it’s not coming from a place of pride o, but I can buy Timini.”

Enraged, Timini retorted, telling Michael that he did not know enough about him to make such a statement.
