‘I was collecting N4,000 for a lead role in 2014’ – Actor Lateef Adedimeji
Actor Lateef Adedimeji of Nollywood has described how, despite landing major roles in films, he received little compensation.
The "Jagun Jagun" actor recounted that in 2014, he got paid as little as N4,000 for a main role.
He claims that he was only compensated between N100,000 and N200,000 for a role in 2015.
He made this revelation on the most recent "Deep Dive" podcast, which comic Teju Babyface hosts.
Adedimeji stated,
“If I tell people that I wasn’t collecting N100,000, N200,000 until 2015/16, a lot of people would not believe me.
“Before then, the highest I collected for a lead role was either N4,000, N5,000, or N10,000. I was paid that low back in 2014 because it was more like a learning process.”
