"I dey get emotional breakdown. I wan leave acting, " na so im lament. E say im don dey dey frustrated wit di profession even though im "love am so much." Most of Gideon lamentation na based on how tins bin be during di four months Covid-19 lockdown for Nigeria as pipo sidon for house no work, no money. During di lockdown, na only essential workers - like doctors, nurses, food producers and sellers - di goment allow to go work. But di Tinsel actor dey argue say, pipo for im profession too follow participate seriously to provide essential service during dat period becos dem help pipo keep dia mind sane as dem sidon for house witout doing anytin. "Make I remind you say as you bin sidon for house for up to four months, dey watch Television, di actor participate actively to help you keep you sanity in check. Di na Essential Service if you ask me. Oga Gideon seriously question why e be say actor work na monkey dey work. According to am, despite all di work wey actor dey do, at di end of di day na only di moni wey dem dey pay am once na im e go get and "most times, na small small di pay go dem drop to cover for a lifetime… For life! "why e dey right for ACTORS to NOT collect royalties and residuals for dia work for Nigeria," im ask, "Wetin di Guild dey do?" Most professional dey entitle to pension and gratuity but Nigerian actors no get anytin like dat and dem no dey collect royalties. Gideon na Nigerian actor, model and TV presenter. Im become popular afta im contest for di first edition of Big Brother Nigeria for 2006. For 2008, e join di MNET TV series Tinsel. Im don dey act for Tinsel since den reach now.
