He said, “In the 80s the Nollywood practitioners were well disciplined, the public respected them for that attitude, but these days the reverse is the case."
“We will do all we can to make sure that discipline is being maintained among the members of the association."
“We need to maintain our integrity because we are public figures."
Jide Kosoko began his acting career by featuring mainly in Yoruba movies. He however removed the stereotype associated to him by featuring in English films.
He has featured in films such as "The Figurine" (2009), "The Meeting" (2012), "Last Flight to Abuja" (2012) and many others.
