Veteran Nollywood, Dele Odule, has said that he is not good at managing money.
According to him, it is a major reason he is not a film producer.
He, however, notes that he has produced 10 movies.
In an interview on Oyinmomo TV, Odule says film production demands strong financial management, which he struggles with.
He confesses that he cannot even trace the master copies of some of his past productions, adding that he is unsure whether they yielded any profit.
“I’m not good at producing. I’ve never been a good producer,” he said. “A good producer must know how to manage money, and I don’t know how to do that. To be a good producer, you need to understand money management because production is a commercial venture. You need to be able to make a profit from the investment, but I’m not good at that.”
He emphasised that he finds fulfillment in acting, where he feels his talent truly shines. “That’s why I prefer acting because it’s where I excel,” he added.
He also shared a past experience where he was “blacklisted” from acting for two years, believing it was due to being perceived as a threat.
“I have been blacklisted from acting for two years. I feel it happened because I was becoming a threat, and they tried to deal with me by blackmailing me”, he added.
