Nollywood
actress, Chidinma Nwadike opened a can of worms last week when she told
Potpourri in a chat that many actresses, mentioning up to 80% of them, use
charms
to get movie roles. While her declaration has been attracting varied
reactions from different quarters, another actress, Sarah Ebhota has added fuel
to the fire, adding more substance to Nwadike’s claim by saying she had once
caught a Nollywood actress with a charm hidden in her bag.
Ekpoma, Edo
State-born Ebhota told Potpourri in a chat that what Chidinma Nwadike said is
true. “I will say it is true that many actresses use charms to get movie roles
because there’s this film ‘Juju wood’ that showed where actors and actresses
use charms to get roles. And in some cases, like some locations I have been,
you see the cast fighting themselves spiritually just because of a role. And I
have once seen a charm in an actress’ bag at a location in Asaba. That’s what I have to say about that but as
for me I strongly believe in God, he
gave me the talent and He has been supporting me. God is my strength”, she
said. Right after her secondary education, Sarah Ebhota auditioned for a role
in ‘Alahaji Maga’, a movie that was to launch her into stardom. Her outstanding
performance in that movie paved the way for her into getting more roles, in
movies such as Kawasaki, ‘Would You Still Love Me, Warriors Against His Kingdom
and many more. She is now one of the hottest fast-rising Nollywood actresses .
Sarah Ebhota has been described as one who possesses great talent and
versatility. “I have always had the passion of being an actress ever since I
was a kid but Super Story and possibilities ignited the drive in me,” she
confided in us.
