Actress Damilola Oni Claims Senior Colleague Is Sabotaging Her Career

Actress Damilola Oni has alleged that a senior colleague once attempted to undermine her career. During an interview with Oyinmomo TV, Oni revealed that the colleague refused to work alongside her, insisting they could not share the same set.

She recounted that the incident occurred when she was cast in a lead role but was left unattended for several hours during production. According to Oni, the producer later informed her that the senior colleague had issued an ultimatum, which resulted in her being reassigned to a minor role.

Despite the setback, Oni said she refused to quit, expressing determination to succeed in the industry. She emphasized that there is enough space in the entertainment industry for multiple talents to thrive.

Oni also addressed online harassment, including unsolicited explicit messages and nude images sent to her via social media. She described the behavior as inappropriate and emphasized that such advances do not reflect her personal preferences.

Furthermore, the actress criticized the industry’s focus on hype over genuine talent, noting that those who self-promote often gain recognition more quickly than those with greater skill. She stressed the importance of perseverance and maintaining professional integrity amid such challenges.
