Be kind to filmmakers – Bimbo Ademoye tells Nigerians

Nollywood actress and filmmaker Bimbo Ademoye has urged Nigerians to exercise kindness and understanding towards filmmakers.

Speaking in a recent video, the actress spoke about the hard work and effort that goes into filmmaking, noting that it is a demanding process. She urged fans to be more respectful and avoid making rude or disrespectful comments towards filmmakers.

“Please be kind to filmmakers today; we really do go through a lot. Underneath the smiles, the posts, the beautiful captions, sometimes we cry in silence, because unless you wear the shoes, you really won’t understand. Review with kindness, be better with your words. Nobody is saying you shouldn’t critique a film, but at least you can let your displeasure be known without being mean, all in the name of bluntness,” she wrote.

Ademoye also thanked her fans for their support and love towards her projects, adding that she does not take it for granted

“Dear cyber family! Thank you! For your love, your support, your patience. I may not be able to respond to all of you, but know that in those dark times, your messages kept me going. I do not take your love or support for granted”, she added.
