Actress Etinosa Idemudia makes it clear to BBNaija’s Pere: ‘I’m not your mate in this industry’

Confirmation has come from Nollywood actress Etinosa Idemudia on receiving a refund from Big Brother Naija reality star Pere, following her public call-out over an outstanding debt.

Initially taking to her X handle to express her intention to take legal action against an ex-BBNaija contestant for unpaid dues, the actress later informed her followers that she had indeed been reimbursed.

Identifying Pere as the debtor, she mentioned that he was compensated for a movie role but did not fulfill his end of the agreement.

Etinosa also took the opportunity to remind the reality star that she holds a senior position in the entertainment industry compared to him.

In a post on her X handle, she stated: “I have received the payment in full. Dear @PereEgbi, if you realize you are unable to complete a job for which you were compensated, it is best to return the funds respectfully. Upholding your integrity is crucial. By the way, let me make it clear that I stand on a different level from you in this industry. Cheers.

“We seem to tolerate unacceptable behavior far too often in this profession. If you are incapable of honoring your commitments with a producer, refrain from accepting payment. Money does not grow on trees. Ensure your unprofessional conduct remains behind closed doors when you step onto the set. Etinosa Idemudia, 2024. May we all be blessed.”
