i lost lead role with Majid Michel over my refusal to sleep with a Marketer- Actress Ruby Ojiakor spills
Nigerian actress, Ruby Ojiakor has spoken on how she lost a lead role with Ghanaian actor, Majid Michel over her refusal of sleeping with a marketer.
 
Although it is not new in the Nollywood industry as Lots of actresses and actors laments on how Producers demand for s*x for roles from them.
 
Talking about how she lost the lead, Ruby stated that she was later placed with another person after she refused sexual advances from the marketer.
 
In a chat with PUNCH, She said;   
“I remember when I was called for a job in Enugu and we shot it for two days. I was supposed to be the female lead character in the movie. The marketer that owned the job wanted to ‘get down’ with me. But, I told him I could not do such a thing. I thought that since I had started shooting some scenes in the movie, nothing could be done to me and he cannot cancel my scenes, which I shot with Ghanaian actor, Majid Michel, then.

I also felt Majid would not want to re-act the scenes he had done before. Those factors made me think that the producer’s decision to change me would be fruitless. But to my surprise, I was not called to continue my scenes. When I challenged the production manager, he said I should not be angry because someone else had been called to play the role. I was not given any reason for being removed from that project.   
I asked if Majid agreed to re-shoot those scenes, and I was told he was paid extra money to do so. That was how I lost a movie role because I refused to sleep with the owner of the movie. The scenes I had already shot were wiped out from that movie. That was a painful experience, but I have moved on.   
I don’t think anything can be done to stop sexual advances from filmmakers. Some people have tried to report them, but it has not yielded any positive results. When an actress reports an offender, she is practically setting herself up for a fall. The offenders know themselves, and if one person reports any of them, they would gang up against that actress in the industry, and she would not be getting movie roles. It is just like a cartel. The best thing is to train oneself and be firm that even if others are doing it, one will not do it. That was what I did.”

She does not pick our calls anymore- Phyna Father cries out

Published

on

Mr Felix Otabor the father of BBNaija season 7 winner, Phyna has revealed that she stopped picking his calls ever since she won the N100M grand prize from the show.

Thinking as she won the show, the parents were glad they were going to be out of suffering but never knew that it is going to continue the way it is.
 
In a interview with Vanguard, He said Phyna disappeared and abandoned them as soon as the prize money was handed over to her.
 
He also claimed that Phyna promised him a better life after telling him to quit his job as a driver but now he is rendered Jobless.
 
He said:


“I haven’t seen Phyna, my daughter since she won BBNaija ‘Level Up’ edition last year. She hasn’t returned home since then. I don’t know why? I am a professional hearse driver, and when she won the reality TV show, she asked me to do away with all my old cars, promising to change my life. But since then, I haven’t seen her. And I don’t have a car again. Once in a while, the Vice-Chairman of our association will allow me to drive his own car. 

“I sold all my four cars because at the time , my daughter won the show. I thought that God had finally answered our prayers. I called her on the telephone, and she said God has blessed us. She asked me to do away with all my old cars, or she would give them out to Aboki, any day she returned. So, instead of allowing her to dash out my cars to scavengers, I decided to sell them as scraps and used the proceeds to renovate my house. And that was the beginning of my suffering. I stopped doing my business because I had no car again. And my neighbours thought I was either stingy or pretending as if my daughter just won a N100 million grand prize. I was the Vice-Chairman of our association, but when I couldn’t show up at our station for some time, they replaced me with another person.
