Actor Bob Manuel Udokwu Explains Why He Prefers Acting To Directing

Journalist Stella Dimoko Korkus interviewed super talented actor Bob Manuel Udokwu in Frankfurt, Germany when he was recognised with the Golden Legacy Award at the Nollywood Film Festival Germany and NEGA Gala Night on August 1, 2026 for his contribution to Nollywood.


Stella asked Bob, “Directing versus acting; which one do you love more and why?”
Bob responded, “Having studied theatre arts, you are taught directing, script writing, acting, production management, choreography and all aspects of theatre. Since I’m one of the pioneers, acting was a quicker way for the audience to know who you are. Many of us opted for acting in the early stages of the industry. I wouldn’t say I love one more than the other, but acting gives you visibility. Most people don’t know directors, but actors are easily noticed. So acting, being in front of the camera, is more acceptable to me.”
