Nollywood actress Sonia Ogiri has come hard on actresses who accused movie producers, directors and marketers of harassing them sexually before they can be given roles.

There is more to upcoming actresses not getting movie roles beyond sexual harassment according to the actress

The Nollywood actress said those who are giving such excuses should come out and tell their world the full story.

To her sex for role demand does not translate to sexual harassment because you are no baby. She said for one to go into Nollywood, organisation or firm to work you should be of age.

Ogiri said: “In the banking industry and every organisation they have them. In my industry, if a director, marketer or whatever asks you out and you said no, they take a walk. For me that is not harassment. They are making their intentions known to you and it is left to you if you are sensible enough, if you like or if you want to live such a life to say yes and play along with them. Nobody in Nollywood is going to hold a gun to your head, no one is going to tell you that if you don’t sleep with them or have a relationship with them, they will kill you or you will no longer be part of Nigeria. If one doesn’t give you a job as an actress or actor, another person will give you. It is a collection of personalities and not just one person. Those people that say they are 

harassed sexually, they should actually tell you the real story.”
