Popular Nigeria actor, Samuel Ajibola popularly known as Spiff has opened up on why he left the popular soap opera, ‘The Johnsons.’
He said leaving the soap opera has re-established him as a producer and director.
He made this revelation while speaking in a recent interview with Channels TV, the actor who played a character called Stiff, an imbecilic clown in the soap opera, said he left the television serial to chase his dreams.
He said, “I spent nine years at ‘The Johnsons’ investing into someone else’s dream. Even before leaving, I had already started running DAILY Issues, which is my comedy skits. I started in 2016.
“So I started building up my own thing to become an emerging producer and a director. It got to a point where I felt I needed to take that bold step to leave my comfort zone which everybody already knew that I was doing great. I needed to leave because, naturally, I’m a very adventurous person. And I’m a big risk taker. I was well aware of the risk I was going to take, like I said, I listened to my guts and till date I haven’t regretted it.
“In fact, leaving [‘The Johnsons’] has re-established me and redefined me more as a producer and a director.”
