Lateef Adedimeji, a Nigerian director and actor, recently shared his experience of being underpaid despite having main roles in movies back in 2014.
He mentioned that he viewed that period as a valuable learning experience.
The talented ‘Jagun Jagun’ performer revealed that he was paid as little as N4,000 for a main role a decade ago.
However, he started receiving between N100,000 to N200,000 for a movie role in 2015.
Adedimeji disclosed this information during a recent episode of the ‘Deep Dive’ podcast, which is hosted by comedian Teju Babyface.
Lateef Adedimeji said:
“If I tell people that I wasn’t collecting N100,000, N200,000 until 2015/16, a lot of people would not believe me.
“Before then, the highest I collected for a lead role was either N4,000, N5,000, or N10,000. I was paid that low back in 2014 because it was more like a learning process.”
