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.”

If I get married, I can never assist my husband to pay house rent- Lady brags

Published

on

A woman named Ngozi has made it clear that she will never assist her husband in paying the house rent if they get married. In a recent statement, she expressed her belief that it is solely the man’s responsibility to cover housing expenses.

Ngozi stated that when she gets married, she expects her husband to take care of the rent or mortgage payments, while she would contribute to other bills. However, she firmly believes that paying for the home should be entirely her husband’s responsibility.

“If we were to get married, I would not be paying for rent. I will not help you pay for the rent or the mortgage,” Ngozi said. “If you believe that the mortgage is too expensive and you cannot afford it by yourself, by all means, move your family and put us in a place that you can afford yourself. Paying the rent is the least you can do as a man. Christ provides the means; you provide the shelter, and I make the home.”
