Leading Nollywood Actress, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, fondly called Omosexy has revealed the reason she has not been picking up roles in movies lately.

Omotola disclosed that she cannot act in a movie where she will not get royalties in her contract.

During an interview, she grieved that Nollywood is disorganised and lacks structure and added that she is proud that alot of learned people are in the movie industry and the standard has increased.

She stated “It is really hitting me, how disorganised my industry is and how much we have not done structurally. I know there are people who are very intelligent in this industry but somehow, we have not just coordinated ourselves. Individually, some of us are doing very well but as a body we are not.

“So I have decided to fall back. I am not doing movies for now because most times when I talk to produces, I tell them since I acted ‘Ije’ every movie I have acted had royalties in my contract. So if you are not going to put royalties in my contract, I am not going to do your movie. You don’t just pay me off and go.

“If I die tomorrow, let my children to have something to hold on to,” she said.

She added that it is irresponsible that actors will allow themselves to be used and dumped by producers.

“I think it is irresponsible that we are doing this or that we are allowing people to do this to us.”

The 'queen of film' also expressed confidence that actors demanding royalties is sustainable in Nigeria’s entertainment industry. She said “It is very sustainable.”

Omotola also revealed her new initiative called 'TEFFEST' which according to her will change the face of entertainment in the country.
