Veteran Nollywood actor Bob Manuel Udokwu has expressed his gratitude and humility after being affectionately dubbed a “crush” by his fans over the years.

The iconic actor recently appeared on The Morning Brief, discussing his acting career, his subsequent journey into politics, and even his relationship with his fans.

Reflecting on the title given to him by fans, Udokwu stated, "I see those who called me their crush as satisfied customers. Your fanbase, as huge as it gets is because they are satisfied with what they're doing, and I'm not surprised."

Udokwu recounted his university days at the University of Port Harcourt, where he was a prominent figure on campus because of his talents.
