Rising actor cum comedian, Uko Emmanuel a.k.a Redbutterflydude has urged his colleagues to be steadfast and dedicated to the art to attain success.
The UNILAG graduate with several movie roles and skits to his credit advises rising actors to be consistent in whatever they are doing.
He said, “passion is like an investment. Young artists should be consistent with living. Many do not see it so, but passion is an investment. The more you keep doing what you love doing, the more you are investing in yourself, because you become better each day, and a day will surely come when your passion will speak for you. When you invest into what you love doing, over time it brings reward beyond your wildest imagination.”
Commenting on his steady rise in the industry, Redbutterflydude said, “I’m an influencer who has worked with so many different brands to bring their products to the light.”
Explaining the idea behind his unusual moniker, he said, “the red colour signifies the importance and the butterfly in science is an insect that grows within different stages, meaning that people should not be afraid to spread their wings and take flight. I’m gonna allow my wings to take me places I’ve never been. I’m gonna flutter and flutter as I navigate towards where the sweetest nectar lies.”
