Jumoke Odetola speak about her relationship and being professional

Odetola stated reasons why movie producers take advantage of actresses and also a few things her fans do not know about her.

In a chat with Tribune, when asked what her fans hardly know about her, she said: “They don’t know that I don’t have a boyfriend. I am also aquaphobia; I’m afraid of sea, pool, and river. Lastly, I don’t like parties.

The actress also said: “Producers may have some outside professional interest in you, either male or female, but the question is who are you? And how did you present yourself? A lot of actresses came into acting, not for the art, but for a means to get to an end, such actresses always come with a different kind of presentation and some producers take advantage of this.

“For me, I work with producers, directors and filmmakers that stay professional. Once there is any hint of extra, I draw the line. I avoid it tactically and maturely without even making a fuss out of it. I understand men making advances at girls; it’s not a crime as far as the lady is an adult. It is a matter of simple ‘yes or no’ and this should never cross professionalism. So, to answer the question, it is a no. I haven’t because of the way I present myself and I believe a lot of ladies should take a cue from this”.
