"And They Are Doing A Good Job"

“Our ladies are using what they have to get what they want. Even some of the guys who can use their a** are the ones making it in ,” he said.

Concerning the showing off of glamour by actors and actresses, Pascal Atuma noted that most of it is just fake life. He further dared anyone who might want to challenge concerning what he has said to do so on national television.

‘I am being very real here and they make it look as if they are doing well but they are not, they are suffering. Let’s stop deceiving the younger ones by keeping it real. We have to let the younger ones know how it is and what it is.”

“Pascal Atuma is my name and I am saying it the way it is and that’s the truth.

“If you want to challenge me on this, please come and do it on any national television in Nigeria or anywhere. I am even ready to pay for the challenge.

The biggest boys in the industry know that I am saying the truth. I am saying the truth and there’s nothing anyone of them can do to affect my career, they can’t employ me.”
