The Nollywood actor finally shared his thoughts about being stereotyped. He noted that he has never seen himself in that light. Timini Egbuson said:
“I’m not breaking out of any mode lover boy or not. The mode was in some people’s mind it wasn’t mine.”
During the chat, Timini sent a message to the people who have constantly tagged him as the lover boy actor:
“It is the fans who need to break out of the mode, ask them that question not me because I have always been great.”

“It was great being a part of ‘A Tribe Called Judah’. But do you know what feels better, getting a closer relationship with Funke Akindele. To be honest she’s someone that have become like my mentor in the industry. Also, creating bonds with all the other actors that were in the movie.”
