Nigerian Film director and Producer Mildred Okwo took to her twitter handle to express shock over the unprofessionalism in the entertainment industry.

The movie producer is surely reacting to the various time’s celebrities who fall sick have taken to social media to source for financial aid to recover from their illness.

Mildred Okwo pointed out that it is saddening to know that some actors have featured in a lot of movies but still require crowdfunding when they fall ill. The movie producer lamented about the state of the industry as she described the industry as unprofessional.

In this tweet, Mildred wonders how movie actors, directors, and producers run to the public for help when they fall ill despite having over 100 movies to their names.

In her words;

“It’s terrible when you have 100 movies to your name but people have to contribute to send you to hospital when you fall ill. This is not an industry we are building o. People don’t have 1 million Naira saved but they have shot 10 films …? This not a profession o”, she tweeted.
