Actor Gideon Okeke has hailed his colleague, Zubby Micheal, as the “biggest Nollywood star,” emphasizing Micheal’s exceptional talent and influence in the industry.
Taking to his Instastory, Okeke wrote, “Zubby Micheal is the biggest Nollywood star. But like Elizabeth, I know what Mary is carrying. God’s expression resounds in different decibels. It takes only humility to submit in praise, to God. Keep riding my broda. I see you.”
This endorsement comes amidst ongoing debates about who holds the top spot in Nollywood. In a recent Prime Video original reality show, Ebuka Turns Up Africa, Zubby Micheal and Timini Egbuson had a spirited exchange over the title of Africa’s biggest actor. Egbuson argued that his box office records, quality of movies, and recognition among industry elites gave him the edge, while Micheal countered with his wealth and overall success as a testament to his dominance.
Zubby Micheal’s influence in Nollywood spans blockbuster movies and a growing fanbase, making him one of the most recognizable faces in the industry today. Gideon Okeke’s praise adds to the accolades that have solidified Micheal’s reputation as a powerhouse in African entertainment.
