Linda Osifo, a Nollywood actress, has revealed why actresses appear to be doing better financially than their male colleagues.
The 29-year-old disclosed this during a chat with popular TV personality, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu.
For years, actresses have been shamed for allegedly engaging in prostitution to make money, buy flashy cars and build expensive homes, however, Linda said there are so many avenues for women to make money than men.
According to her, actresses have ambassadorial deals from wig brands, skincare, clothing brands, which is why some of them have more money than men and are able to acquire houses.

Linda said, “As a woman compared to a man I have more options to get more jobs than a man.
“I can advertise hair, wigs, shoes and a wide range of clothes from brands which most men cannot. The ratio of men to women is 1:3 which makes the market wider for us.
“I’ve become a brand ambassador to skincare brands and that’s an industry that men don’t dominate and conquer so this is how women are more successful.
“Women have more opportunities to make money,” Osifo said.
She noted that actresses are oftentimes accused of illicit affairs because of the erroneous belief that a woman cannot succeed on her own merit.
