Many big actresses who have made it already are claiming that there
are no cases of séxual harassment in movie industry, at least to cover
themselves so people wont say they also did it, but some young ones who
are not so desperate are trying to expose the mess and probably stop it.
One of such actress is Banke Adewunmi. She said séxual harassment is very real in Nollywood:
“There’s sexual harassment in the Industry. It’s not easy making it
without being séxually harassed. Some people think its like trade by
barter. It’s real. There should be a level playing ground for all
without attaching any dirty conditions. People should be allowed to
showcase their God-given talents without any hindrance.”
IMO: Its so pathetic because its not making it easy or even possible
for us to spot the real talents in the entertainment industry.
The so called Producers and Marketers will rather give the role to whoever is ready to be their bedmate……..
This really has to stop and its not a battle of just these innocent
and talented actors, we have to join them in fishing out all those bad
apples denying us a Julia Roberts like or another Genevieve, Omotola,
Kate Henshaw and co.
If you have any sexual harassment experience and you’re willing to share, please email me at yusuffoluwagbamila@gmail.com
