Veteran Nollywood actor Richard Mofe-Damijo, popularly known as RMD, has revealed why he does not like being referred to as a legend.

Speaking during his appearance on the Curiosity Made Me Ask podcast, RMD described being called a legend as a “scam.”

While explaining that he does not see himself as one, he named veteran actors such as Pete Edochie and Olu Jacobs as legends.

Expressing his displeasure with such a title, RMD said: “I think the legend of a thing is a scam. I have my legends like Uncle Pete and Uncle Olu Jacobs; these are our ancestors and legends.

“I have been watching him (Olu Jacobs) when he was saying Ribena children are the healthy children. So I don’t subscribe to being called legend and when they call me that I feel they are trying to relegate me to neighbourhood of retired people or those nearing retirement.”

The 63-Year-old Delta-born actor began his acting career in 1982.
