Veteran actor Jide Kosoko has addressed the issue of sexual exploitation in Nollywood, advising aspiring actors to maintain their self-respect and dignity. Speaking on the Honest Bunch podcast, Kosoko emphasized that no one should feel forced to compromise their values for a movie role.
While admitting that some may opt for unethical paths to progress in their careers, he urged others to stay true to their principles and not sacrifice their integrity for fame.
He said: “If I say I need you to come warm my bed before I can give you a particular movie role and you say you don’t want, just go, they cannot force you to do that. But if you want that role by all means…I know some ladies that come into the industry with determination that by the time I sleep with this person and that person I will get my name”.
