In a recent episode of the Prime Video original reality show, ‘Ebuka Turns Up Africa’, Nollywood actor Zubby Michael made bold claims about his status as the ‘biggest actor’ in Africa. However, his colleague Timini Egbuson was quick to challenge this assertion, stating that he was not in fact bigger than him.
The tension between the two actors escalated when Zubby Michael boasted about his financial capacity to buy Timini Egbuson. This statement did not sit well with Timini, who fired back in a subsequent episode of the show.
Timini Egbuson, known for his roles in popular Nollywood films, took the opportunity to set the record straight. He emphasized that Zubby Michael did not know him well enough to make such claims about being able to purchase him.

Because you have all this your Igbo connect that you people will borrow each other’s cars and do all those things, you think you have seen me finish? What do you even know about me bro?”
