Nollywood actress Rita Dominic has disclosed how a group of marketers at the time used their influence to ban her from the movie industry.

In a video aired on Joy997fm’s official Instagram page, she revealed in an interview that the marketers, who at the time were considered the Nollywood movie industry‘s mini-gods, had barred her from the business.

In her statement, she said, “Before I decided to become a producer and form our company, I was silently banned.

"I was banned from Nollywood silently by marketers because they were the mini-gods of Nollywood.

“They banned me because I was trying to do things differently, I just felt like it got to a point where if you want to acquire the services of an actor, it is best to talk to their management about it”.

In the same interview the actress spoke about her marriage while on the popular television station Joy TV. She explained why she married at 46, and shared that it was all worth it despite the societal pressure of waiting so long.

Rita Dominic revealed during the chat that she waited so long before tying the knot because she wanted to be sure that she was getting married for the right reasons.
