Veteran actor and lawyer Richard Mofe-Damijo, aka RMD, has noted he does not want to be forgotten.
He, former Commissioner for Culture and Tourism in Delta State at a recent book reading hosted by Roving Heights, opened up on how he has kept fit over the years.
The title of the book is ‘RMD: Portrait of a Warri Boy.’
He said;
“Times come and go but one will still be there because one has learnt how to glide through the seasons when they come. I really love this work and I don’t want to be forgotten or go ‘extinct.’ I move with the times. I am lucky to have a daughter who is in fintech and she just throws me into the deep end. There was a day she said to me, ‘Dad, I want you to speak at my workplace.’ I told her I did not know anything about fintech. She insisted that I should come and talk about (my) work.”
The lawyer, actor-cum-author added that hunger made it easy for him to move from one career to another.
He said;
“It is hunger. Hunger actually trains one. I don’t like not to have, and I don’t like to fail. I have disciplined myself to be able to adapt. I am completely committed and dedicated.”
