Now our research about this new fast rising actress has been unveiled, how she steals ideas without giving credit to the originator. I said it when she released Being Miss Elliot'. Now, its Okafors law'
Nollywood actress Omoni Oboli has been accused of
stealing script writer cum Toronto Black Film Festival
coordinator Jude Idada’s intellectual property without
acknowledging nor paying him even after writing the script
for her.
The Canada-based writer Idada has accused Nollywood
producer, director and actor, Omoni Oboli of copying his
script for her new movie which is set to
make its world debut at the Toronto International Film
Festival (TIFF).
In an exclusive audio interview with True Nollywood
Stories (TNS), Idada stated that he wrote the script of
Oboli’s Okafor’s Law and that Omoni and her husband
Nnamdi only had a title but no story line. After showing
her the script, Omoni and her husband Nnamdi took
interest in it and decided to produce it.
According to him, he agreed to have a contract with them
because of what happened in the case of Being Mrs Eliot
which he contributed to but was not credited for his input
in the movie. So for Okafor’s Law, in September or
October 2015, he said they agreed to have a contract
signed and also that he will be paid $5,000 which as at
that time was N750, 000 for the story. However, they
neither paid him nor gave him credit for the script. The
movie is now set for its world premiere.
