Nollywood actor Rotimi Salami has spoken out following a callout from a production manager, who accused him of leaving her set without completing his shoot.
Taking to his Instagram page to share his side of the story, Rotimi said his senior colleague, Lekan Olatunji, had contacted him for a movie project, which was to be shit in two days. Unfortunately, the date of the shoot was rescheduled for four times for unknown reasons. On the final scheduled date for the shoot, he asked for mobilization and was paid N100kajd he didn’t complain because of his respect for Lekan.
Salami said he arrived in Abeokuta on the set at 2.30 pm because his car broke down and he had to fix it. Salami said a time was already fixed for his appearance and there was no plan for him to sleepover on the set on the second day.
The light-skinned actor, who was supposed to return to Lagos for an important appointment about his life, couldn’t wait longer following a delay from the movie crew, and he left the set, only for the production manager to push a wrong narrative about me to defame him.
“READ CAREFULLY..
I am doing this because I need to protect my image on Social Media first, especially because of those who truly care and have reached out to me, but I couldn’t pick or explain anything to them.
This will be the last time I will be saying anything about this here.
Meanwhile, defaming me with such a post
And posting my business mobile number for people who know nothing about my transactions to call and bash me does have a fine.
After all these my epistle.. Whether you find me guilty or not. Please kindly subscribe to my YouTube channel THESALAMIS TV.
IRE O”.
Last year, Rotimi was left in an emotional state after witnessing a gory fatal accident along the Ibadan/Lagos expressway. Rotimi revealed that he was in tears when he watched many fights for their lives in pain. Narrating the incident, he appreciated the FRSC for showing up on time at the accident scene.
