Popular Nollywood actor Ray Amodi has announced his exit from the film industry to pursue a full-time career in music, revealing that a long battle with anxiety informed the life-changing decision.
The actor made the disclosure in a now-viral video shared on his Instagram page Tuesday evening, where he opened up about his health challenges and the toll they have taken over the years.
Amodi said he has struggled with anxiety for more than a decade, a condition he described as a major factor behind stepping away from acting.
“I have stopped acting in films. I quit to focus on my music career,” he said. “This is a decision that has come with a lot of consequences.”
His announcement marks a significant career shift after years on screen, as he now channels his energy into music despite acknowledging the personal and professional risks involved.
