The Nollywood actress Oluwakemisola Apesin, better known by her stage name Kemity, has responded to reports that she used sexual favors to rise in the business.
She reportedly emphasized that hard effort is the reason behind her success in a post on her Instagram page.
Kemity shared old pictures and reminisced about her early career as she looked back on her time in Nollywood.
She said that she has always made her way on her own and has never traded her body for opportunities or movie parts.
She supported herself while following her acting love by working as a receptionist at the Masters Hotel in Ayobo and owning two wine shops prior to entering the film industry.
Kemity noted that in order to finance productions and maintain her financial stability, she had to acquire a variety of skills for her work, such as acting and makeup artistry.
She emphasized that her background and strong family values have guided her in her work and dedication, which has led to every professional accomplishment.
The actress, who is also a mother to two girls, cautioned aspiring actors against falling for industry short cuts or deceptive claims.
She stressed that hard effort, skill, discipline, and consistency are sufficient for success.
“Turn back Thursday,” she wrote. I have to politely clarify things. No one should allow social media noise to fool them. I have never collected a movie role with my body. I have never slept with someone in order to be in a movie.
“I have never traded opportunity for sex. I sold wine in two different stores before I even met my employer.
“I’ve always earned my money via hard labor. A mother is what I am. I’m bringing up and training my two daughters with honor and moral principles. I can’t base their future on anything shady. My sweat is everything I am now. By God’s grace and hard labor, I have accomplished everything.
