Veteran Nigerian actor Yemi Solade has questioned how some actresses claim ownership of luxury cars like the G-Wagon.
Ogun voice reports that in an interview with the Honest Bunch podcast, the thespian stated that earnings from acting alone cannot cover such purchases.
The actor explained that the Nigerian film industry does not provide enough financial returns for any actress to buy a G-Wagon strictly from acting jobs.
He said that only those who have other streams of income or business ventures could possibly afford such expensive vehicles.
Solade insisted that movie roles in Nollywood do not generate the kind of money needed for such luxury, expressing doubt that anyone relying solely on acting could boast of buying a G-Wagon.
He said: “No actress can come out and say she bought her G-Wagon strictly from the money she made through acting. The earnings from Nollywood are not enough to cover such a luxury purchase. Acting alone cannot provide that kind of money unless the person has other sources of income or investments outside of movies.”
In other news, Solade has explained why he has not been attending church for more than ten years.
Ogun voice reports that he revealed that his decision began in 2013 after an experience that left him uncomfortable with the way church activities were handled.
