Nollywood actress Eniola Ajao has reacted to movie critic Tolu Fagbure’s negative remarks about her career.
Newsunplug reports that Fagbure, in an interview on Agbaletu, claimed that the actress does not have talent.
When asked about Eniola Ajao, Fagbure responded, “That one doesn’t have business in the cinema with her ‘Ajakaju’. Of course, she is from the same block as Odunlade Adekola.
“I don’t think her acting has a place. I don’t think that is acting at all. She has a fine face, plastic delivery. The only thing she has going for her is her fine face; that’s admirable. I don’t think she has talent, let alone developing it into skill.”
When the interviewer asked, “Really? Is this not too brutal?”
Fagbure answered, “That’s my opinion. My opinion is not sacrosanct; my opinion is not the end.”
Reacting to Fagbure’s remarks about her acting, Eniola Ajao, in a post on X, wrote, “Ahhh, so my fine face is the only thing carrying me? After all these years?
“I will just keep doing what I know how to do: work, grow and let the audience decide. After all, opinions are free, but careers are built.
“Cinema or no cinema, I’m not stopping anytime soon. Ire oo.”
