After veteran actor Segun Arinze proclaimed him the biggest actor in the nation right now, Nollywood star Uzor Arukwe shared his excitement.

In a recent interview with QED, Arinze said that Arukwe is currently the biggest star in Nollywood and commended him for his performance as Odogwu in the popular film Love In Every Word.

“‘Love In Every Word’—Uzor [Arukwe] did so well in that film,” Arinze remarked. At the moment, he is the biggest deal. He has worked his way up the ladder, and I’m really delighted for him.

In response, Uzor Arukwe emphasized how much he appreciated the seasoned actor and remarked that Segun Arinze’s co-sign meant a lot to him.

He remarked, “This is the most humbling video I’ve come across on the internet today,” after reposting a portion of the widely shared interview on X. I was moved to tears when I heard Uncle Segun, a veteran I greatly like, extol my praises. Uncle Segun, I sincerely appreciate your nice remarks. My day was brightened by this video.
