Renowned Nigerian actor Richard Mofe-Damijo, popularly known as RMD, has shared his discomfort with being referred to as a "legend," describing the title as misleading and limiting.
Speaking on the show Curiosity Made Me Ask, the 63-year-old actor said such labels often suggest that someone is past their prime or nearing retirement, which he strongly disagrees with.

"They're trying to relegate me to that neighbourhood of retired people or those who should be retiring soon." Instead, he reserves that title for industry icons like Olu Jacobs and Pete Edochie, whom he believes have truly paved the way and made lasting contributions to Nigerian cinema.Reflecting on his admiration for these veterans, he added, "Uncle Olu Jacobs, uncle Pete… those are our ancestors, our legends.
I was still watching Pete when he was saying 'Ribena children are healthy children.'"
