Nigerian actress Toyosi Adesanya, many young women once entered the acting industry not just for the craft but also to become well-known practitioners.
Adesanya disclosed that she started performing in 1992 with the Odunfa Caucus, a theater group founded by Taiwo “Ogogo” Hassan, Yinka Quadri, Abbey Lanre, and Ara Ọsan, in a recent interview on the Nollywood on Radio podcast.
“There are even many ladies who came to theatre world because they want to harass men. That is there motives. When I was at Odunfa Caucus, I know how many ladies who are after Ogogo, my boss Taiwo Hassan.”
“know how many ladies who came to join Odunfa caucus because of Ogogo and Yinka Quadri.
“Till this present moment, I know how many ladies who are running after stars. Some come to theatre through someone who may be marketer and now try to seduce another man. Before you see anything they would have started dating.
“And that person that brought them does not have power to produce film. Because if you complain they can blacklist you.”
“There are many film locations I have travelled to for makeup and did not give myself away,” she added.
“But now, there are people who do not have the rudiments of acting, yet as soon as they have N2 million, they call themselves stars. If you have your training under any caucus, you are given a stipend to manage yourself.”
