”Forget the big money, I’d rather stay here”- Actress, Toyin Aimakhu reveals why she won’t do a Hollywood movie

By Patricia Uyeh

Nollywood actress, Toyin Aimakhu and now Toyin Abraham, was one of the guests at an ongoing conference where she revealed why she prefers to be famous in Nigeria, rather than in Hollywood.

According to her, she would gladly turn down a lead role in Hollywood if the script does not align with her values,  beliefs and culture.

Toyin said:

“I have made up my mind to do only what improves me positively and more importantly, what portrays my culture and tradition. Forget the big money, I’d rather stay here.”

She also spoke on the recent developments in the movie industry.

According to her, there is now division of labour among producer, director, actors, video editors and all concerned.
