Actresses in the film industry have been known to sell sex in exchange for roles, according to veteran performer Adebayo Salami, better known by her stage name Oga Bello.
However, the film producer reportedly claimed that because of his rigorous discipline, he has never been a victim of it.
The 71-year-old movie icon stated in an interview that he sets clear limits and has never let any actress approach him with such proposals.
He clarified that no one could try such with him because of his work ethic and principles.
“I won’t give you the opportunity to approach me. That is unlike anyone I have ever seen. However, he acknowledged that it occurs in this generation.

Salami, who began performing in 1964 at the age of 12, stated that he is conscious of the increasing lack of discipline among performers and filmmakers in the modern era.
He claimed that in his early years in the field, certain behaviors that are now accepted, such tardiness and weak justifications, were never accepted.
“The discipline in our time is very different from this,” he stated. Certain justifications are untenable in this line of work.
“I would advise you to leave my set even if you are playing the lead.
“I’m a disciplined producer and director, and I won’t even give you the opportunity to come meet me or discuss it with me.”
