'Use deodorant'- Frederick Leonard slams colleagues with body odour

Popular Nollywood actor Frederick Leonard has slammed some of his colleague actors  for showing up on movie set with foul body odour saying the situation was unbefitting of them.

The ‘Nollywood Darling boy’ who vented his displeasure about the offensive body odour of some of his colleagues was reacting to an Instagram post by his colleague actor Victor Okpalan, who seemed to be bemoaning the same issue.

In the post, Okpalan Okpalan chastised the actions of some actors and crew members while advising them to figure out measures to lessen the odour before they showed up on a film set.

“Dear crew members, I love you and am always fighting for you but a roll on or body spray of 300 Naira can save our nostrils. You can’t come onset and smelling like a rat poison seller under Ajah bridge! Like how can’t we breathe where you are? Abeg save our nostrils,” Okpalan wrote on Monday April, 24, 2023.

Reacting to the post under the comment section, Leonard said deodorants should be compulsory for both cast and crew.

“Any Human being That Has A FUNCTIONING BRAIN 🧠 Whether Cast or Crew, should Use Deodorants. And touch up Again by 5.pm so you don't begin to smell like rotten Goat 🙄 For a Profession that requires that we are Constantly on our Feet for a minimum of 14 hours, COMMON SENSE SHOULD APPLY.. And Let's not Forget Mint or Gum to Fight Mouth Odor. Thank You," he wrote.
