It appears nollywood veteran actor Richard Mofe-Damijo popularly known as RMD, may soon join the list of celebrities that left the movie industry to accept the spiritual calling.
This comes as the actor who revealed he was a Sunday school teacher for over 15 years expressed fears over the possibilities of ending up in full-time ministry.
RMD said this while reacting to a new movie where he landed the role of a pastor.
He stated:
“Besides every perceived Bad Boy is supposed to end up in full time ministry right? So, what did I do? Run!
“I’ve avoided the pulpit with trepidation. But just like Jonah, I continue to end up somehow in the belly of the calling where I have played a pastor or reverend father more than anything else in my acting life.
God does have an amazing sense of humour. I’m not even sure as I write this if I’ve fully escaped the CALL! Until date I still frighten myself every time I’ve had to speak in a church because when I take the pulpit, the Holy Spirit takes over.”
