It’s not unbelievable, as a matter of fact, this is something we all knew but had no proof till now.
A source has come forward to confirm this report and even gave me stipulated prices for roles.
The source disclosed that all you need to do is pay a fee, no audition is required.
She says that for minor roles, these producers demand anything from N50k to N100k; depending on the role they are giving you.
If you want to play a lead role it’s between N500k to N1million.
Waka pass people (non-speaking roles) are even made to pay too.
Most producers claim they are not making money from these movies because people aren’t buying them so can’t invest all their money in it.
They also say finding financiers to pay for the production of a movie is hard, so for these movies to see the light of day, every cast member has to contribute.
Several sources claim that it’s the girls they refer to as ‘runz girls’ looking for popularity that started this trend.
These girls would offer movie producers money to feature in their movie so they can refer to themselves as actresses and now it’s become a part of Nollywood.
