Boma, in a recent interview with Nollywire, discussed the disadvantages of being an actor in Nigeria.
The reality TV star, highlighted three important areas while expressing the need for greater organization and some distressing aspects that the industry still needs to address:
“Firstly, The way we deal with contracts here, it’s a joke. Like black and white. If you’re supposed to do a job, the way they’re supposed to go about it, there’s still a lot of unprofessionalism in those areas. People cancel contracts, actors not showing up, taking monies.
Secondly, Producers removing actors last minute without you being aware. Imagine you’re supposed to be in a job, and the job has gone on and you’re not part of the job and you’ve canceled your calendar. It doesn’t make sense. So it’s still a joke here. Breaching of contracts
Thirdly, Timing too. Set is supposed to start at 9, I get on set, they say “this is Nigeria,” I don’t know what I’m in.”
