Nollywood actor, Chidi Mokeme, recently expressed sadness about his upbringing and the discipline he got from his parents.
The actor said he began his career as a model, but was unable to satisfy some of his needs at that time, and as such, had to think of another means of survival.
According to a report by Nigeriafilms.com, Chidi noted that at the time he joined Nollywood, there was no money, adding that modelling was better off.
The actor said there was war between he and his parents over his chosen profession, adding that it took the intervention of some family friends before they got to appreciate his efforts.
He further disclosed that his father had to always lock the television and go out with the key so that none of them could have access to the TV.
Chidi said his family was more interested in education and had to keep a close watch on him, but they never knew what he was up to. “So, now that I am doing well, I have forgiven them,” he said.
