Nollywood actress Toyin Alausa, who has appeared in Yoruba films, recently shared her own experience working with actress Funke Akindele. This comes after skit writer Ganiyu Kehinde, alias Ijoba Lande, went viral on social media by claiming that he was paid N90k for a month of work on Akindele’s film set, though later apologized and clarified himself. Alausa responded to the scandal by commenting on her own experience working with Akindele on set. She ensured that she would talk, and asserted that always staying quiet would inevitably be misunderstood. The actress proceeded firmly to affirm that, having worked multiple times with Akindele, she is certain that Akindele pays her cast and crew fair wages and well and treats them decently. Alausa hailed Akindele for her timely payments as well as taking the workplace environment to a relaxed level, ascertaining that her experience is always a friendly one. She also took advantage of the occasion to remind folks to be appreciative to others who invest time, money, and effort to create successful endeavors. In her post, as shared by nollywoodcitadel, Alausa asked others to refrain from making general assumptions, noting that Akindele, who had just prayed for actor Timini, is a working-class, foresighted woman who leads by example by lifting other people in the profession.

Iyabo Ojo Defends Dancing to Promote Movies

/

Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has reacted to the strange methods Nigerian producers currently employ to promote their films—especially dancing and skit-making. This came after a lament by fellow veteran actress Jaiye Kuti, who lamented the energy that goes into promoting movies. In an impassioned video on her Instagram page, the actress and producer came to the defense of colleagues like Funke Akindele, who have been blasted for embracing social media trends as ways of endorsing their films. Bringing back memories of the good old days of Nollywood, Iyabo gave fans a vibrant flashback of how producers used to gather at the gates of the National Theatre in Lagos, drumming, singing cultural songs, and dancing to get people to watch their movies. “This is something that has been happening as far back as when I joined the Yoruba film industry. The only thing different is just the method in which we do it,” she said. Referring to the usual advertisement scenario, she explained, “If Coca-Cola just keeps having ads one after the other for their products, then why can’t I or anybody else use whatever means to post an ad and make people knowledgeable.” “We were literally begging people to come in and watch,” she said. “You can’t bring out a movie and just put it in cinema and expect people to watch it,” Iyabo stressed. The actress encouraged other film directors to get creative with their versatility and ignore appearing unserious. To her, it doesn’t matter how the hype is created, as long as people view the movies. “Don’t be shy. Don’t be ashamed. You must constantly advertise,” she declared.
