Nigerian actor Zubby Michael has declared he’s the biggest and richest actor in Africa at the moment.
The actor recently opened up about his acting career in an interview with Broadway Television. He also talked about his love life and the criticism he receives by virtue of being an actor.
Buttressing his claim, Michael recalled being paid the sum of ₦102 million for his last acting gig. He added that he also has three houses across Lagos, Asaba and Anambra.
“To God be the glory, I don’t think anyone is bigger than me for now. Zubby is the biggest actor in Africa right now.
For now, I’m the richest actor because if you see the money I get, I’m not saying that for people to clap for me. The last time I checked my book, I realised that I have made ₦102 million from artiste fees lately, not in all my career.
That means I have to share ₦10.2 million for people because that is my way of paying tithe. I have three houses, one in Lagos, another in Asaba and the other in Anambra. Three buildings for now and more coming.”
The actor also dismissed allegations of money laundering against him. Zubby stated that those peddling such rumours are against his progress.

“People online forget to tell themselves the truth because online is not real, it is just like a market square. I don’t launder money, my only source of income is acting and production.
Forget people that are talking nonsense, I won’t go into laundering money or such thing because I’m not desperate when it comes to money. I love money but I don’t worship money.”
He revealed that he is ready for a serious relationship, adding that he stayed away from dating because of its likely effect on his career.
“I’m scared of women, I have been working since but now I want to give it a chance. Had it been I had a girlfriend, I may not have been this successful, because if you disturb me mentally, it will affect my work. If we have a problem, I may be on a movie set and start thinking about her.
It will affect me, so as a young man, it is not that women are bad, they are beautiful but there is time for everything.” He added.
