According to Rita, her determination make changes for herself was the reason she was banned from Nollywood, a painful experience she has never discussed in public.
She recounted that some years ago, actors/actress used to work with the marketers who were not used to talking to management since the management were communicating to the entertainers directly.
To change the narrative, she took a manager identified as Mildred, who was also her business partner.
According to Rita, Mildred was also the one managing her career. At this point, things changed sour as challenges started cropping in. Change became the center of controversy as according to Rita, she wanted them to come up with some sort of structure that would help their growth.
She said: “If we wanted this to go further or advance our careers, we needed to start letting them understand that we have management. So obviously, they didn’t like it but they didn’t…let me put it this way:
I think they gave me a silent ban without saying anything. I used to trickle down certain things that they would say, a few of them, and I can understand. You know, people don’t like change sometimes especially when it’ s been the same thing for so long and it has worked for you. I didn’ t get work for a long time!,” Rita Dominic said of the silent ban from Nollywood that was not noticed by many people.
