Delta State Commissioner of Culture, Richard Mofe-Damijo, has continued to enjoy his place as a Nollywood actor, in spite of his current place as a political office holder.
The veteran actor who still walks the red carpet at local and international film events, is being bestowed an honorary title of Dike Ohana Nollywood by organisers of Nollywood Igbo Film Festival.
Founded by Nze Harris Chuma, the event, which enters its 4th edition this year, will take place from August 27 to 30, 2014.
Chuma said RMD is being honoured for his contributions to Nollywood. The actor-turned-politician, who has in recent times shed some weight, with the aim of leading a healthy life style, has also been added among top Nigerian artistes, featuring in a new campaign tagged Go Ahead, an initiative of telecoms outfit, Globacom.
The Go Ahead campaign, according to the management of Globacom, depicts the essence of the network, dynamism of its services in voice, data and fixed lines among others.
