Veteran Nigerian comic actor, Wale Akorede, popularly known as Okunnu, has called out popular marketer, Olasco Films, over an unpaid job.
Speaking in a now trending interview with media personality, Olugbenga Oropo Valentine on SAWORO program, the actor stated that he hasn’t forgiven Olasco for his refusal to pay for a movie he produced for him some years ago.
Narrating the incident, Okunnu who tagged the unpaid money his “sweat”, noted that he didn’t get a dime from the money made from the movie he produced, directed and played lead role.
“I once did a movie for Olascoand he didn’t give me anything. Not even N5 for pure water till this moment. I don’t know if I will later be paid on judgement day. I haven’t forgiven Olasco. Mr Akeem Balogun Olasco, I don’t know about tomorrow, but as at the moment, I haven’t forgiven Olasco.
“I wrote a movie ‘Aare’. I directed it and played the lead role. Both part 1 and part 2 of the movie were released at the same time. I didn’t see a dime from it. I will be lying if I say Olasco gave me anything from the money made from my sweat”, he said.
“Okunnu is an ingrate, i gave him 2 million naira to shoot a movie 16 years ago when nobody knew him, now he’s saying he worked with me and and didn’t drink pure water” - Olasco Films in an interview pic.twitter.com/pGP8lbYLgj
