But after what he describes as a divine encounter, he surrendered his life to Christ and became a new person. Reflecting on his past, he admitted that his \u201cbad boy\u201d reputation extended beyond the screen. He confessed:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">\u201cI was once a bad boy. But thank God for today because my life has changed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">According to him, one of the pivotal moments in his transformation came during an encounter with Zubby Michael on a movie set. Despite Zubby\u2019s own reputation for portraying rough and rugged characters on screen, Yabkaba said the actor surprised him with a message of encouragement. Yabkaba recalled:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">\u201cHe told me I am a star and should stay focused. I was shocked because I thought he was a bad boy due to his movie roles. But that day, he carried me along on set and made me feel comfortable.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The conversation sparked a friendship between the two, with many mistaking them for brothers because of their shared surname. Yabkaba credited <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/2025\/07\/29\/see-skin-e-soft-zubby-michael-and-bimbo-ademoyes-reunion-sparks-reactions-online-video\/\">Zubby\u2019s words with helping him avoid<\/a> destructive associations and motivating him to concentrate on his career.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Yabkaba\u2019s journey in Nollywood began with his debut movie \u2018Return of Shina Rambo\u2019, directed by Ilochi Olisemeka. The film gave him a reputation for playing rugged \u201cbad boy\u201d characters, a stereotype he carried into other productions such as <em>German Machine, Who Killed Abobi, Convenant of Money, Secret of Zubby, Flashback, The Assassin, <\/em>and<em> The Clash.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">While these roles cemented his image as a tough actor on screen, Yabkaba says his real-life transformation has been just as dramatic. He now embraces his new faith and continues to work towards redefining his career and personal journey.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Beyond his testimony, Yabkaba also shared candid advice for those hoping to make it in Nollywood. He emphasized the importance of financial stability before pursuing acting, noting that his ability to provide for himself early on gave him the resilience needed to survive in the industry. He said:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">\u201cComing up, I had a car and could take care of myself. It wasn\u2019t easy, but if I had family or industry support, it would have been less difficult.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Despite originally dreaming of a white-collar career after university, Yabkaba now sees acting as his divine calling. He encouraged young talents to remain focused, financially independent, and spiritually grounded as they navigate Nollywood\u2019s challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nollywood actor Nwosu Michael, popularly known as Yabkaba, has opened up about his personal transformation, crediting fellow actor Zubby Michael for playing a major role in turning his life around.
