Actress and filmmaker, Fisayomi Amodemaja, popularly known as Fisayo Abebi, has urged young actors to build strong personal brands and rely on their talent rather than fame or social media visibility.

Speaking in an interview with Sunday Scoop, Abebi, who began acting as a child before venturing into filmmaking and production, said having a distinct identity was crucial for anyone seeking a sustainable career in Nollywood.

She said, “As an actor, you should have a brand. You should have something that makes you different. Your talent should be able to speak for you wherever your name cannot speak for you.

“Any young actor coming into the industry has to know that it is time-consuming, and you have to be fully ready to be diligent and ready for the stress.”
