The handsome, quiet actor, Kola Ajeyemi who is Toyin Abraham’s husband, finally expressed his unpleasant feeling about the new movie OKO IYABO produced by Yomi Fabiyi who claimed to be a Human Right Activist.

The acclaimed activist featured some characters that were involved in the case of the Olanrewaju Omiyinka popularly known as Baba Ijesha, the comedian, Princess and Iyabo Ojo.

In view of this, Kola Ajeyemi made a video where he condemned the movie and the producer, Yomi Fabiyi.

According to Kola Ajeyemi, he expressed that there is no love and unity in the movie and in the industry anymore, also added that the actors are not laying good examples and are being ridiculed in public because of the controversies happening.

Having said all that he also exclaimed that he has a lot to say but he would tongue tie the rest. He however advised actors to produce monumental, significant and meaningful movies.

Are you getting your share of the 70 trillion dollars or I should mind my business?

Imagine getting an unexpected credit alert of about 50 million Naira now. How would you feel? What would you do with the money? Where would you go? 

While you're busy "imagining" , a bunch of American kids are already collecting it. 

In fact, some have collected more than that and it's not from their lie-lie president. 

It's actually from a least expected source; their senior citizens. 

Yes, many Americans are now set to receive a share of the 70 trillion dollars the older generation have saved up for them.

It has been called "the greatest wealth transfer in history".

This got me thinking about my own life. 

I wondered what my own kids and grandkids would get from me by the time I'm 90.

I thought of saving up money for them but it might not work in Nigeria (no be today banks don dey break people heart).

I thought of buying parcels of land for them to inherit but when I remembered the violence that followed my grandpa's death just because of his land, I had a rethink. 

I kept on pondering on this until I came up with the perfect idea: Books!

Book publishing is the way to go. 

I stopped publishing when my books started bringing me a sizable income but now, I'm facing it squarely. 

The more I publish, the more money my progeny will receive when I'm gone (at the age of 107).

Now, I understand that not everybody knows how to write books. 

And those who do usually don't know how to make it consistently profitable. 

That is why I decided to write this article to help such people. 

Watch out for the second part of this article for some resources that could help you solve all your publishing issues.
