Nollywood actress Dayo Amusa has spoken out against what she describes as growing online pressure directed at entertainers over national issues.

In a post shared on her X page, Amusa lamented that many in the creative industry are increasingly being attacked for either sharing their opinions or continuing with their work during periods of national crisis.

She wrote: "The bullying many of you subject our colleagues to in the creative industry is crazy… They freely can’t share their opinion; they can’t post their jobs without being called insensitive."

Amusa explained that filmmakers often take loans with high interest rates to produce movies, yet are expected to suspend their work and focus solely on posting about national tragedies.

"We go to the bank to take loans to shoot movies with high interest rates, but you want us to suspend our jobs and be posting videos of kidnapping and cursing the government daily while you’re in your own office tweeting and enjoying your environment," she said.

The actress also made it clear that she would not bow to online trolls, stressing that her brand was not built on pandering to mobs.

"The day I decided to start using this app actively, I’ve made up my mind that many of you trolls don’t matter. I won’t pander to mobs as I didn’t build my brand on it. I have other strings of income; don’t come under my post to act silly, I’ll send you home," she warned.

Despite her frustration, Amusa offered prayers for the victims of the recent Oyo State abduction, where schoolchildren and teachers were kidnapped.

"May God bring succour to the family of the kids and teachers kidnapped in Oyo state. May they return home safely," she added.

I woke up today with a very heart…The bullying many of you subject our colleagues to in the creative industry is crazy…

They freely can’t share their opinion, they can’t post their jobs without being called insensitive..
We go to bank to take loans to shoot movies with high…
