NOLLYWOOD ACTRESS, ‘SIKIRATU SINDODO’ LAMENTS POOR PAY IN THE INDUSTRY
Nollywood actress, Tayo Odueke, popularly known as Sikirat Sindodo, has lamented the poor remuneration in Nollywood.
Speaking in a chat with newsmen, she said, in spite of the photographs of houses, cars and other material possessions flaunted by movie stars on social media, the pay in the industry is not encouraging.
She said, “I don’t have any regrets being in the industry. Just like in every other area of life, there are ups and downs. I just thank God that I’m still here because many people I started together with are no longer around. However, that is not to say that there are no challenges.
“The pay in the industry is poor and it is not encouraging at all. It is the passion one has that has kept one in the industry for this long. You only make money when you produce your own movies. Ordinarily, that shouldn’t be so. There is a lot of potential in the industry and we only need the right support to excel.”
