Actor goes back to school at 55

Guess who is excited about going back to school to perfect his skills? It's popular 55-year-old Yoruba actor, Yinka Quadri.

The actor revealed this in an interview with Encomium Magazine. According to Yinka, he is going to sharpen his skill in film production at the Olabisi Onabanjo University.

Read excerpts;

We have it on good authority that you’re going back to school, to do what?

As a matter of fact, Yinka Quadri is going back to school to hone his skill in film production, particularly production design at Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago Iwoye, Ogun State.  I have every reason to believe that it would better the lot of the industry and it would also adequately prepare me for my political ambition.

How does it feel?

I feel very elated and happy about it.  At 55, I feel very excited going back to school.

When is the programme starting?

It will start in the first week of February 2015. It’s a 6-month programme.

You were recently on tour of U.S and the UK, what was your mission?

I went there to rub minds and brainstorm with Hollywood and Bollywood stars so as to tap new ideas to raise the ante at home. I strongly believe in innovation and with that you can measure up to international standard.  This is our industry and we can’t allow it to die.
