When you see some of them you will know that they can\u2019t even pass an audition. They will struggle with minor roles here and there. And the next thing you will hear is that she just acquired a multi-million mansion and a 2025 Range Rover.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"J3TD4I1Ktt4\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"OLD VS NEW NOLLYWOOD  FT CHARLES INOJIE | S4 EPS09\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/J3TD4I1Ktt4?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou will hear she just got a N40 million mansion for her mum. And she got a N150 million mansion for herself. Then as a male actor, you begin to ask yourself, \u2018What\u2019s happening? Are they paying them extra after settling us?\u2019 But you know that for the female folk, their streams of income are many.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor instance, whenever some of my politician friends call me, I know they are watching <strong>Africa Magic<\/strong>. They will be like, \u2018Charles, I\u2019m watching one movie right now. There\u2019s this particular girl. Can I have\u2026\u2019 That\u2019s the multiple streams of income for them [actresses].&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEven the actresses know that regardless of whatever the filmmaker is paying them, a huge amount is going to come later from people who patronise them after watching the movie. So, by the time a Senator calls here and a House of Representatives member calls there. One big business executive calls there and they put it together\u2026 Before you know, one of them would buy a multi-million naira duplex in Lekki.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Charles Inojie, however, urged his male colleagues not to be worried by the wealth acquired by the actresses and to continue to work like they do.<\/p>\n \n                               <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n                <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                         \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veteran Nollywood actor and director, Charles Inojie, has attributed the wealth of most female actors in the Nigerian industry to their meet-ups with wealthy and influential men in society.
