Actor Gideon Okeke has tagged the Nigerian film industry 'a beast' over the ill-treatment and impoverished state of the actors in the industry.

Okeke lamented that Nigerian actors are treated as “second class citizens” compared to their counterparts in the music industry.“I’ve really begun to feel frustrated in this CRAFT that I love so much.“Remember that during the times of COVID lockdown, ONLY folks working in “essential services” were allowed to come out. Doctors, Nurses, Farmers etc.

“But for All that the ACTOR does all that accrues to him at the end of the day, is the upfront payment which he accepted. Which most of the time, comes at a Piecemeal drop, covering for a duration of A Lifetime….For Life!” “DO THEY CONSIDER GOING TO THE OSCARS, BEING ON NETFLIX, MORE IMPORTANT THAT THE WELFARE AND LIVELIHOODS OF THE PERFORMERS WHO ARE PERPETUALLY KEPT IMPOVERISHED?”
