Veteran Nigerian actor Richard Mofe-Damijo, who is better known as RMD, has mentioned that he doesn’t think much about being called a ‘legend’.
In a recent episode of BaeU Barbie’s podcast, Curiosity Made Me Ask podcast, RMD described being called a legend as a “scam.”
While explaining that he does not see himself as one, he named veteran actors such as Pete Edochie and Olu Jacobs as legends.

Expressing his displeasure with such a title, RMD had this to say, “I think the legend of a thing is a scam. I have my legends like Uncle Pete and Uncle Olu Jacobs; these are our ancestors and legends.
“I have been watching him (Olu Jacobs) when he was saying Ribena children are the healthy children. So I don’t subscribe to being called a legend, and when they call me that, I feel they are trying to relegate me to the neighbourhood of retired people or those nearing retirement.”
The 63-year-old Delta-born actor began his acting career in 1982.
