Why I’m Qualified For My Role In Anikulapo – Actor Damilola Ogunsi
Nollywood actor Damilola Ogunsi has corrected a viewer of ‘Anikulapo: Rise of the Spectre’ who referred to him as white.
The albino actor played the role of an angel in the recently released series by film-maker Kunle Afolayan.
However, the decision to use Ogunsi as an angel did not go down well with a viewer with the X handle Ohjay1 who faults it.
Sharing a clip from a scene from the series where the protagonist, Saro (played by Kunle Remi) met an angel (played by Damilola Ogunsi) at the gates of heaven, wrote, “This thing has to stop, why use white as angel inside black movie #Anikulapo.”
Reacting, the albino actor said it feels good for him not to be recognised.
He, however, said he is “blacker” than anyone in the scene.
Reposting the viewer’s tweet, Ogunsi wrote, “Feels good not to be recognized.
“I’m sure I’m ‘blacker’ than anyone in that scene.”
