Nollywood actress and babymama of singer Portable, Omobolarinde Akinyanju, better known as Ashabi, has revealed her resolution for the New Year.
Taking to her Instagram page, she told her actor friends to include payment in their budget if they want her to be on their project this year. She stated that they shouldn’t call her as she would be mad if they expected her to support them for free.
She told vendors who want her to influence her brand for free or at silly rates not to bother reaching out to her as she wouldn’t work with them. The mother of two noted how bills aren’t a joke as she questioned how she would be able to pay her bills if she worked for free.
Ashabi made it known that she will be staying a lot of Nos this year as she wants to do jobs that she would be proud of and be happy doing.
“You are my friend, and you really want me on your project this year. Make sure you include payment in your budget.
Or don’t call me at all. I won’t even be mad. But I will be mad if you expect me to support you for free.
You are a vendor, and if you want me to influence your brand for free or at silly rates, don’t bother o. I’d rather not work with you.
Bills are not joking with anyone right now, so if I work for free how do I pay my bills?
Pls, take note.
I will be saying a lot of NO this year ( I want to do jobs I will be proud of ). I want to be happy doing my job, not just coming online to post location pictures or influencer deals. (So help me God)”.
