‘I Haven’t Forgiven Him’ – Veteran Actor Okunnu Calls Out Marketer Olasco Over Alleged Unpaid Debt
Veteran Nollywood actor Okunnu has publicly expressed his displeasure after calling out popular film marketer Olasco over an alleged unpaid debt, stating that he has not forgiven the situation despite the passage of time.
The actor made the revelation while speaking during a recent interview, where he recounted his experience working with the marketer. According to Okunnu, the disagreement stemmed from a financial obligation that was never settled, an issue he says left him deeply disappointed.
Okunnu explained that beyond the money involved, the situation affected him emotionally, especially considering the level of trust and professional respect he believed existed between them. He stressed that the matter was not about public attention but about accountability and integrity within the industry.
“I haven’t forgiven him,” the veteran actor said, noting that unresolved issues like this contribute to long-standing grievances among creatives. He added that such experiences serve as lessons for younger actors to be cautious and ensure clear agreements when working with marketers and producers.
The comments have sparked reactions within Nollywood circles, with many calling for better financial transparency and professionalism in film marketing and distribution. Some industry observers believe the incident highlights recurring challenges faced by actors, especially veterans, in recovering agreed payments.
As of the time of reporting, Olasco has not publicly responded to the claims. The development has reignited conversations about trust, contracts, and fair compensation in Nigeria’s film industry.
