Richard Mofe-Damijo is his name.He is a veteran Nollywood actor who turned into politics and is currently the Delta state comissioner for Culture and Tourism.
You may remember him like I do from numerous Nigerian movies,my first encounter with him being in early 2000 in the movie Scores to settle which was released in 1998 back when there were no DVDs but VCDs only.
The former actor took a break to pursue his political career but in these recent photos taken in Maryland,USA he has certainly caught the attention of many of his fans not only in Nigeria but in Africa as well.
Last year the 53year old had hit the spotlight again when there were speculations on social media that his sudden weight loss was due to an illness.
When asked about his weight loss,RMD as he is populary known said that,
"You know, I have to keep up with the younger generation now, they are taking over, so.. one has to sit up and you all better don't count us out yet. I had no choice but to get in shape to stay on top of my game. and you know, I never left the movie industry, people always think i'm done.. and all i say is don't count me out, once an actor, I will always be an actor, that is who i am."
Check out those photos here,he is in great shape at 53 right?
