It has always been assumed that acting is a very lucrative job but Veteran Yoruba actor, Taiwo Hassan has said that a lot of actors and actresses go through financial pains.
The 56 years old actor revealed that the reason he has not been in the big screen for some time is because they are paid peanuts.
According to him,“I just can’t be chasing some jobs that are not worth it now. Imagine going to Ibadan now on fuel of about N30, 000, the producers don’t usually have the fund to pay for my hotel and I will lodge my personal assistants in hotels as well. I can’t commit to jobs that are not worth it. It is not every job that one gets to do at a certain stage in one’s life.”
He expressed disappointment over the works pirates which are really ruining the acting business. You will release a movie in the morning and by noon, the pirated copies will be everywhere.
