I didn’t set out to be famous – Yemi Solade
Movie producer and filmmaker, Yemi Solade, says his rising fame and popularity in Nollywood was something he didn’t plan from the outset.
In an interview with Saturday Beats, the 62-year-old also gave reasons why he rarely attends events in entertainment industry.
“I pay special attention to my appearance in public. I don’t want to be everywhere. I want my work to speak for me. The creative industry has too many events and I don’t have to attend them all.
“I just want to do my work and go home, rest and look forward to the next job. However, that does not mean I don’t attend events. I only select the ones I attend.
“I never set out to be a popular person. I only wanted to express my innate ability to do theatre arts.
