Charles Inojie, a veteran of Nollywood, has asserted that female actresses get paid more than their male counterparts because of the ‘additional money’ they receive from socializing with wealthy and influential men.
He went on to say that even ladies who play supporting roles in films are more affluent than male actors who have starred in leading roles in box office hits.
These assertions were made by the actor in the most recent episode of The Honest Bunch Podcast.
Inojie added that some of his politician buddies occasionally call him and request that he connect them with female actors.

The veteran contended that the money amassed over time from several guys is what the ladies who he tagged ‘daughters of Jezebel’ use to get multimillion-dollar mansions.
Inojie said: “I spoke about the influx of daughters of Jezebel that came into the industry, still coming into the industry.
“When you see some of them you will know that they can’t even pass an audition.

“They will struggle with minor roles here and there.
“And the next thing you will hear is that she just acquired a multi-million mansion and a 2025 Range Rover.
“You will hear she just got N40 million mansion for her mum.
“And she got a N150 million mansion for herself.
“Then as a male actor you began to ask yourself, ‘What’s happening? Are they paying them extra after settling us?’ But you know that for the female folk, their streams of income are many.
“For instance, whenever some of my politician friends call me, I know they are watching African Magic.
“They will be like, ‘Charles, I’m watching one movie right now. There’s this particular girl. Can I have…’ That’s the multiple streams of income for them.
“Even the actresses know that regardless of whatever the filmmaker is paying them, a huge amount is going to come later from people who patronise them after watching the movie.
“So, by the time a Senator calls here and a House of Representatives member calls there.
“One big business executive calls there and they put it together… Before you know it, one of them would buy a multi-million naira duplex in Lekki.”
