Debbie Shokoya Vows: ‘I Paid My Dues and Won’t Shrink for Anyone’ — 1 of 2
1 / 2

Nollywood actress Debbie Shokoya took to Instagram to assert her self-worth. She stressed that she has paid her dues in the industry and refuses to diminish herself just to be in anyone’s good books. She called out colleagues who lie to producers, insisting she’s only unavailable because she’s nursing her newborn. She challenged anyone trying to sabotage her career for demanding fair treatment. Last year, she publicly thanked Funke for promoting her film. This year, she hinted at using family members in her online content and urged Yoruba filmmakers to raise production standards and improve the genre’s reputation.
