I believe her die!
We both featured in her waka pass role at age 15. I was her classmate in the movie "stillness" . She was paid $450 for the role.
So it's possible she was a millionaire at age 18.
I sincerely doubt this though. First the exchange rate was a lot lower and actors weren't paid much.....she would have had to be an A-list actor in those years to make that amount in that short period. Let's also not forget she had other responsibilities

Her interview about being a millionaire at 18 is questionable. In fact,do u know how much civil servant were earning that time. How much was Mercedes Benz then?
Just listen to her,that she has been working since when she was 15 years old. Then I ask,what kind of work was she into. Abi work no get name.

For me,our young men and women should be careful who they choose to be their role model,because not all that glitters is gold.

Hanty millionaire.
No disrespect, but that is VERY less than likely.
At 18, you were relatively just a nobody who had just been fortunate enough to have been picked to feature in Violated.

Can you tell me how you were a millionaire at 18?
How?

Movie roles at the time cost about 20thousand
to 40thousand naira and that was for lead actors like Liz Benson, Teco Benson, Olu Jacobs and Regina Askia.
Genevieve began entering that class and all she got was envy.

But what if NwaAmaikpe is wrong and you truly were a millionaire at 18, shouldn't you be ashamed that at almost 50, no one or verrrrry few people outside your immediate family can say you lifted them to their peak?

How has your millions impacted the lives of the people you are trying to motivate with this fable?
How many scholarships are in your name?
Asides clout chasing, how many hospital bills in the South East and South South have been taken care of courtesy of you?

If you are a thrillionaire, you are an imaginary thrillionaire in your own pocket.
People like this should go and ask Akon what it means to be successful or rich. It's useless if it benefits no one but you.

While the ignorant hail you, people like myself in my insanest state will not recommend you as a distant role model to anyone.
Is this one normal?
Must she help anyone?
Can't anyone work to become a millionaire too?
Nigerians and their miserable entitlement mentality...

you are not thinking properly at all.
Emmanuelle is better positioned to make money because she was/is a youtube sensation. Earning about $3000 per youtube videos uploaded as she gets a lot of views. In naira, she is a millionaire and no one ever questions that
But omotola is most likely lying. In fact she is lying.
What roles did she play in 1996-1998 that made her a millionaire. Most movies were not even making up to N200,000 from sales and rentage.
I doubt you were born at this time.
This was a time when you could still buy garri for N1.
Where would she see N1m?
Yes, U Are Right. Omotala Is Lying.

People seem to forget that 1mil as at then is not 1 mil as at now. The valuë of 1 mil in the 90's is no less than 10mil now. So Madame done get 10mil for account at age 18? I dônt think so.

You became a millionaire doing what?
Nigeria journalist don't know how to ask questions, they just ask random questions.
If it was an intelligent person asking her questions, she will be ask to tell the world what she was doing that made her a millionaire at the age of 18.

Because i know that in the western world, every young millionaire In Europe or America has what he or she is doing that has turned them into a millionaire at a very young age. But NIGERIA is so different, you see a young rich guy or lady and you can't tell the job or business he or she does that has brought about the money and cars.
That is Nigeria for you.

so tell me how many preek she wan Bleep that will make her a millionaire within 3 years? And if she rose to fame with clitocurrency like you are inferring,won't she have fizzled out? Won't her lack of depth have been exposed? Look at Moyo Lawal for example,she was within the same level as Funke Akindele some years back in the 90s ( I need to know) soap opera but hardwork and talent singled Funke out and today Funke Akindele and Moyo Lawal aren't in the same level because 1 used hardwork, consistency and dedication to enter and rise , while the other used clitocurrency and she's still at that same level as we speak

So what's my point if really Omotola used clitocurrency,she should have fizzled out and time should have exposed her source so please stop with the pull her down naija syndrome

Then again tell me how many Naija men no Matter their background will know that the lady who they want to marry is a high class prostitute and still with their eyes wide open marry such woman? If she was doing high class olosho to become a millionaire, will her husband have married her? Let's stop all this unnecessary casting Aspersions because of envy

This woman dey lie. She got married before her 18th birthday. She was one pretty skinny face in the church when the agbaya impregnated her. They got married to cover the shame. Apparently what the man felt did no fade with time otherwise she would have be married to more than one man.

if she really was into something questionable to make her money by 18 then time will have exposed her source

Time exposed the source of hushpuppis (controversial) wealth
Time exposed the source of Funke Akindele wealth
No matter how clever or smart a person is in gathering money whether through legitimate or questionable sources,time will expose it no wonder an addage says

A very lame counter points. Do you know the time we're talking about here? At that time, movie roles don't cost up to 50,000 naira for A-list actors and actresses and she was still a novice.

At 15, she's very likely still in secondary school. So obviously it's either she's lying or she started whoring from a young age

your case is very special. People are claiming she is lying and they have given valid points. You are just barking. There is absolutely no way omotola had one million naira from working for 3 years in the 1990s. Totally impossible. It is possible now that we have stuff like endorsement deals, the internet etc.
But luckily for her she married a rich man.
Now that changed her story but she does not want to admit that her husband's money has helped her career. She wants us to believe she was equally rich when she married her husband.
I know you would still not understand as I have seen at least 5 of your unreasonable comments here.

very true. Some are just more lucky than others.
It is either she is lying or there is another explanation that is most likely shady or as some people said, she probably inherited money or property from her dead dad. But she should not come here deceiving us that she WORKED 3 years and became a millionaire in 1996-1998

Actually, nobody asked her if she was a millionaire or 'hundrednaire', she chose to tell us about it and so it is imperative of her to tell us how she made the money. (Note: this was in the 90s when there was nothing like blogging, you tubing, etc.

Either she lied about being a millionaire or the source of the millions is not something that can inspire people positively.
