Nigerian actor Timini Egbuson has responded to recent social media debates questioning his acting abilities, particularly in comparison to fellow actor Efa Iwara.
The discussions began when a user on X (formerly Twitter) suggested that Efa Iwara might be as much of a flirt as Timini, stating, "Hmm are we sure Efa Iwara isn't cutting it as close as the biggest flirt just as Timini! He's so seductive!"
This comment sparked a broader conversation among users, with some criticizing Timini's acting skills and others defending him. In response to these critiques, Timini expressed his frustration, remarking that the negative comments about his acting are becoming monotonous.
The debate has also highlighted the issue of pitting actors against each other. An article on Pulse Nigeria suggests that instead of tearing one actor down to elevate another, it's more constructive to recognize and celebrate multiple talents within the industry.
Timini Egbuson has built a reputable career in Nollywood, with notable performances in films such as "Breaded Life" and "Dinner at My Place." In 2023, he was recognized as the highest-grossing Nigerian actor, according to data from FilmOne
