Nollywood actress, Ruth Kadiri-Ezerika has come out to say that she was overlooked at the Eko Star Film & TV Awards. She recently revealed this on social media, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to her, Mo Abudu and the Lagos State Government have clearly shunned her hard work all because she doesn’t belong to any clique.
Ruth added that she has faced the struggles every woman/filmmaker has faced in the movie industry, so she doesn’t understand the unfair treatment.
Her words, “I am a film maker. I am a woman. I am a hardworking woman. I have faced the struggles every woman/filmmaker has faced. Did my name at any point pop up yes. But because I do not belong to a click (sic). Yet again I have been overlooked.”
“I will not be pressured. I will keep working hard. @lagosstategovt @moabudu @ijayonah @nifsummit thanks for overlooking me and congrats to everyone who got recognized. the film industry is controlled by women, so if you’re going to do it, do it right or don’t do it at all.”
WOW.
