Instagram comedian and actress, Nons Miraj popularly known as Ada Jesus, has revealed the reason she ditched Nollywood for skit-making.

Speaking in an interview with Saturday Beats, Nons Miraj said she earns more money from skit-making and possesses more creative freedom than when she was acting in movies.

According to her, she used to be paid as low as N30,000 per movie and would spend days on set whereas with content creation, she has freedom to do as she pleases and dictate her price.

Content creation has changed my life in a very big way. I remember when I used to act in Nollywood films, I would be paid as little as N30,000, and they would keep me on set for one week. Sometimes, one would get stressed. They won’t even give one preferential treatment. But, with skits, one does things on one’s accord.

One is not working under anybody. One dictates the amount one wants to be paid based on the services one is rendering to the people that are paying for adverts. The life is just soft and sweet. Content creation is beautiful, as long as one is doing the right thing.”
