The Nigerian actress Biodun Okeowo has revealed the reasons for her decision to stop acting.
The unjust treatment she received from certain film marketers was the reason behind her choice, she disclosed.
According to Biodun Okeowo, these marketers attempted to harm her career by making irrational demands.
She gave specific examples of how they had an impact on her profession, such as being taken off movie posters and refused projects.
Biodun Okeowo stated that as a result of these experiences, she lost her passion for acting and began to turn down roles. Eventually, she made the difficult decision to leave the industry.
“Marketers were the reason I left the movie industry after blacklisting me for refusing to remove my panties. They even told producers to stop featuring me in movies and went as far as removing my head from the poster of a film where I played the lead role.
“How many of their wicked actions should I even talk about? They did so much damage to my career that I eventually got tired of acting and walked away by myself. I developed so much hatred for a job I once had so much passion for that I began to turn jobs down,” she revealed.
