Nollywood actor Wole Ojo has taken to social media to share his candid advice to aspiring actors on what they need to do to survive the stifling economic situation in the country.
Wale Ojo who took to his Instagram page to charge upcoming movie-makers said that having a steady source of income will make chasing one’s dream easier.
According to the actor, a steady source of income gives the leverage to make smarter decisions and that way, actors are less desperate to cheapen themselves for roles.

The 38-year-old thespian who used the s3x-for-role scenario in Nollywood as an example, said that source of income gives the leverage to make smarter decisions and that way, actors are less desperate.
“Get training, it’s important. Not necessarily the four walls of universities you can get training at Ebonylife, Wale Adenuga, Emem Isong also have school, Blessing Egbe too, and a host of others. Find yourself a school even if it’s online. Know that it’s not going to be easy, and most importantly have an alternative source of income.
“It’s good to chase your dream but having a steady source of income gives you leverage to make smarter decisions because when you do not have a steady income you become desperate so any pressure that comes your way you give in. When somebody says I need to have sex with you to give you a role you do it but when you have a steady source of income you will be able to make better decision. If you have a steady source of income it puts you in a better place to say no to. It’s going to do you a lot of good,” Wale Ojo wrote.
