Dele Odule, a veteran Nigerian actor, has disclosed that he once priced his own casket.

He stated this while discussing his dark moments during an interview with Feelright TV.

Recounting the incident, Dele Odule who explained that he took the decision in his moment of despair, said he was accompanied by his colleague, Olaiya Igwe.

“I had priced my own casket before, when I was in a state of hopelessness, and complete loss of hope. Olaiya Igwe went there with me. Olaiya started crying like a baby.

“I wasn’t sick, I just believed I can no longer have breakthroughs in the industry. I was fed up. Because all my school mates are doing far better than me and my life was nothing to write home about,” he said.

DAILY POST reports that Dele Odule began his acting career in the 1970s and rose to fame in 1993 following his role in “Ti Oluwa Nile”, a classic Yoruba movie.
