Nigerian movie actress cum filmmaker Mosun Filani has finally opened up on why she took a break from the movie industry.
Last year the movie star returned to the industry after many years of being off-screen. In an interview with Oyinmomo TV, she disclosed that she prioritized her kids above her career, hence, her break from the industry.
According to her, she decided to pause her acting career for her kids to grow up as she noted how time flies. She made it known that business was never a priority to her.
Mosun noted that when a child gains admission to the University, he or she is no longer under the care of their parents and as such, she wanted to train her kids well, especially with what is going on on social media.
In Mosun Filani’s words:
“Business was not my priority. I decided to take that break. I took a long break for the kids to grow up. For how long do they stay with us. When a child is in the University, he or she is no longer under the parents’ care, take it or leave it.
So, how many years do you have to spend with your children? To train them?
Some people are even alleging that they are the ones releasing their s3x tapes, just to have followers. Let there be a scandalous post about anyone and see the massive growth that will happen to his/her Instagram page.
That aspect is one that bothers me alot”.

Meanwhile, last year Mosun Filani announced she is back in the movie industry after years of being off-screen.
Urging script writers, producers and directors to send jobs, she noted how there is time and season for everything.
Mosun quit acting after she married her husband, Kayode Oduoye, a politician and son of late Assistant Inspector-General of Police, Simeon Oduoye.
Her husband’s political ambition reportedly fueled her decision to quit acting as she was required to project a certain lifestyle and acting wasn’t part of it. Unfortunately, he didn’t win any poll, so she concentrated on her beauty business and caring for her family.
Speaking out, Mosun Filani revealed that she took a break from Nollywood to focus on her family and children.
