 I almost quit Nollywood over sexual harassment – Mercy Aigbe


Popular Nollywood actress Mercy Aigbe has narrated how she almost left the Nigerian movie industry over sexual harassment.


The actress disclosed this while narrating her challenges before making her way to the top.


Speaking in an interview with Morayo Afolabi-Brown, Aigbe recounted how a producer made passes at her after a movie audition despite earning the role for an upcoming film.


“I met a producer in Surulere, and I expressed to him how much I would love to act. He told me he had an upcoming film and invited me to his office for an audition in his office.


” After I had passed three stages of the audition, I was given a minor role, which I told him that was not the character I was auditioning for, and he replied that the director said he did not know me, and that was why he wanted me to be close to him,” she said.


“He then stood up to touch me. I was very upset and I thought if that was what it took to be an actress, I don’t want to be an actress anymore. I tore the script and left. I cried on my way going home because I left a well paying job to join Nollywood, and I was already a single mother at the time.”
