Nollywood actress, Mary Remmy Njoku, has described Nollywood as a home for all and dumping ground for all of society’s rejects.
Njoku’s comment follows a statement made by the President of Actors Guild of Nigeria, Emeka Rollas, that the movie industry is not a dumping ground for evictees of the Big Brother Naija show.
Njoku, a mother of one, argued that a majority were unemployable in the society when they joined Nollywood with no degree and no certificates.
She went on to say that if not for Nollywood, many people would have committed suicide because of stigmatisation and discrimination.
