Veteran actor and producer, Adebayo Salami, also known as Oga Bello has revealed the reason for his reduced involvement in movie production recently.
According to The Punch, the former president of the Association of Nigerian Theatre Arts Practitioners stated that his reduced involvement in movie productions could be that he doesn’t like the scripts he receives and that he is being careful about the movies he appears in.
He said, “Age cannot slow me. If people don’t see me in movies as much as they used to in the past, it could be because I don’t like the scripts.
“I get a lot of invitations to be part of different movie productions but I am careful about the ones I appear in.
“I have been on location for several weeks now for a series we have been shooting.
“In terms of improving the quality of scripts and story line of movies, we are trying our best through our association.
“As a leader, I talk to my colleagues, especially the younger ones, to come up with scripts that would carry good messages and address important issues in society and I am happy that a lot of dialogue is going on in that regard.
“As for my involvement in movies, age cannot slow me down, at least not now.”
