How Asiwaju Tinubu Paid For Everything When the Industry Lost Moji Olaiya – Bimbo Akintola Reveals

tvcecontent — Mon, 23 Jan 2023 17:00:45 +0000

Nollywood actress Bimbo Akintola has carved a niche for herself, especially in movies that tell the stories of women’s plights and the girl-child.

The 51-year-old actress made her acting debut in Owo Blow (1995) and later starred alongside Richard Mofe-Damijo in Out of Bounds (1997).

According to Bimbo, her film is not about entertainment it’s about being able to change lives, and tell stories of people so they will see that they are not alone.

“I am always one sucker for anything that has to do with women and the girl child. You can catch me in those kinds of stories; those are my favourite stories. In the film “Widows the morning after”, with Jide Odomosu, I had a woman work up to me, she was crying, and she said that was the story you told.

‘‘When I meet people who have been affected by the stories. That, for me, was a high point that moved me beyond words. And when our movies impact changes in our society, that’s a high point for me.

I understand and see the plight of the girl child. I have always worked with organisations that have dealt with sexual assaults and other related issues.”

Talking about where Nollywood is heading and what she hopes to contribute she said, “What you will see in the next five years is already there.

“The quality and acting these days is outstanding and I think more of that will continue I tell people that we don’t really tell our stories, we talk about relationship and all that but we don’t really tell our stories and if we don’t, the white will come and do it for us.

“Nollywood has standards now and grading for films which shows you what kind of film and when you see it on Netflix you know that it is a huge budget in terms of what we normally shoo but the truth is we do need structuring in the industry because they way we run the industry now allow for exploitation of people who are not known.

The pay gap from the waka pass to the established actors is huge not like the established actors are getting what they deserve but it’s really huge.”

Speaking on her take on her colleague running for deputy governor of Lagos state Bimbo said, I think more and more people who feel they have a service to give this country should step up.

Nigeria needs all the help so they need to step up. If you say you can you need to step up. I am with the PCC and I am working for Asiwaju I am also with CGI which is connecting grassroots initiatives that were started by MC Oluomo and what we are doing is going door to door.

Normally I don’t share my politics and what I believe on social media but because of the way people are attacking others I said no, we won’t be bullied, every Nigerian has the right to make a choice.

RMD Celebrates His Son, Tega Mofe-Damijo, as he turns 18years

tvceadmin — Tue, 09 Jul 2019 14:41:29 +0000

The famous Nollywood actor, Richard Mofe Damijo (RMD), took to his Instagram page to put down some heart-felt message to his son, Tega Mofe-Damijo on his 18th birthday.

Here is the message he wrote;

Dear Son,
Turning 18 is a big deal as it offers you the freedom and liberty to be your own man but you know you’re never really going to be ever free from me right? Oh, just ask your Uncles, big brothers and sister -lol.
I know how confusing the next few years will be for you as you straddle boyhood and manhood at the same time but I hope I have been a good enough father and steered you in the right direction.
I pray for you to be a good man, even when people are not watching, that is INTEGRITY.
I pray that you do deeds that will help others, even if no one knows you did them, that is KINDNESS.
I pray you are quick to share not only what you have, but what you know, that is GENEROSITY.
I pray that you treat everyone as equal, irrespective of their social status, that is RESPECT.
I pray that you remember that every woman is to be treated like they are precious, because they all are, that is BEING A MAN.
I pray that you never use your voice or physical strength to intimidate anyone (male/female), that is REAL STRENGTH.
I pray that you’re not afraid to speak the truth, even as a lone voice, that is CONFIDENCE.
I pray you spend only what you can afford, and not be pressured to live for the gram, that is WISDOM.
I pray that you do not glorify crime, drugs, alcohol abuse and other forms of debauchery just to appear cool and lit, that is UPRIGHTNESS.
More importantly, I pray you remember that you’re God’s son and live in ways to make Him proud.
Son, being 18 gives you the right to make choices but it does not absolve you of consequences so be careful the choices you make.
Here’s to an amazing life ahead of you #RMDSaysSo #LetterToMySon #DearTeenageSon #TegaMofeDamijo
