“Nollywood no longer passion-driven, everybody now focused on BBL and makeup” – Actress Bimbo Akintola

 


Veteran Nollywood actress Bimbo Akintola has shared her thoughts on how the industry has changed over the years.

In a recent interview, the actress said the Nollywood of today is more focused on appearance than passion, unlike when she and her colleagues started out.

 

According to her, back then actors were driven purely by hunger and passion, not money or glamour. She recalled how they would work long hours, even overnight, without caring about food or pay, just to bring stories to life.

 

Akintola mentioned that legends like Joke Silva and Shola Sobowale were also passionate about their craft, prioritising the art over comfort.

 

She added that things are different now, as many actors are more concerned about makeup, outfits, and looks, even going as far as doing BBLs.

 

“The passion is gone… it’s now about looks, not content,” she said, stressing that looks will fade but true artistry lasts.

NAFDAC says ban on sachet alcohol is to protect children

  The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) says its enforcement of the ban on alcoholic beverages in sachets and small plastic or glass bottles is aimed at protecting children and young people and not punishing manufacturers.   In a statement on Thursday, January 29, NAFDAC director-general, Mojisola Adeyeye, said the policy was driven by public health concerns and growing evidence that alcohol packaged in sachets and containers below 200 milliliters has increased underage drinking across the country.   The agency recently began enforcement of the ban following a directive by the senate, with the backing of the ministry of health and social welfare.   According to Adeyeye, the small and cheap packaging of high-alcohol-content drinks makes them “easily accessible, affordable and concealable”, leading to widespread misuse among minors and some commercial drivers.       “This ban is not punitive; it is protective. It is ai...
