Nollywood comic actor, John Okafor, popularly known as Mr. Ibu has decried the spate of up and coming artists paying money to be part of movie productions. The comic actor said it is alarming that it is no longer sex-for-role that is in vogue now but money-for-role.
In a recent chat with The Sun, the actor ’ said “It is not sex-for-role that is in vogue now but money-for-role. “People are paying to be part of productions. It is rubbish and I will keep criticising the practice and I tell you, I will get to the root of this matter.”
Mr. Ibu advised up and coming actors and actresses to calm down and take it easy. He said,”The only thing I want to tell them is ‘to take am easy.’
“Why should they use their hard earned money to buy roles? They should calm down. “If you go for an audition and fail, go home. Today might be someone else but tomorrow, it could be you. “If there is any reason to be in any production, it should be by merit. Whatever you don’t know, ask questions,” he added.
