Veteran Nollywood actor Roy De-Nani has spoken about the challenging experiences he has faced in the film industry, as well as the personal tragedies that have deeply affected his life over the years.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

During an appearance on the Where is the Lie podcast, the actor revealed that his acting career took a downturn after he was allegedly blacklisted from receiving movie roles.

He claimed that there was a time producers unexpectedly removed him from film projects even after production had already begun. According to him, some filmmakers were instructed to drop him from their casts, which severely affected his career progress.

Roy De-Nani also reflected on a painful period in his life following the death of his brother. He said he felt completely alone at the time, adding that none of his colleagues in the Nollywood industry reached out to support him after the loss.

The actor further shared an emotional account of losing both his son and daughter, who were living with sickle cell disorder and required regular blood transfusions.

He explained that financial hardship made it impossible for him to continue funding their medical treatment, which was essential for their survival. This, he said, ultimately led to the passing of both children. He also noted that he received no assistance from the film industry during that difficult time.

Despite everything he has been through, Roy De-Nani stated that many people may not fully understand his experiences unless they have faced similar struggles personally.

Roy De-Nani gained recognition in Nollywood during the early 2000s, appearing in films such as Hatred and Long John, which helped establish his presence in the Nigerian movie industry.
