I took a break from acting to focus on my business — Mo Bewa

Actress, Omobewaji Oyediji, better known as Mo Bewa, has shared the reason why she is not currently actively acting.

According to the actress, she is focusing on building her business brand at the moment.

“I can’t say I took a break entirely because I was on a movie set recently; I just did not post about it on social media. Also, I leaned more toward business because I had always wanted to have multiple streams of income. In as much as acting is lucrative, it doesn’t hurt to build my business. I already told anyone who cared to listen that I will be back and better next year,” she said.

Mo Bewa also expressed her disapproval of women who mock or belittle men on account of their financial struggles.

She said, “People who know me are aware that I don’t stand for things like that. Why would you broke-shame me? The society has pressurised the male gender into thinking they are saviours, who have to provide everything a woman wants. I am not in support of women who broke-shame men. If the woman can also not afford it, she has no right broke -shaming a man. I am totally against women that broke-shame men”.

On whether a film should be released in cinemas versus on digital platforms such as YouTube, she said, “If you feel your project is good enough to push to the cinemas; by all means, do that. I am not a fan of limiting anybody.”
