"I Am Not Ashamed To Request For A Car” Veteran Actor Alapinni Defends Controversial Public Appeal

Veteran actor Alapinni, known for his remarkable talent and contributions to the Nigerian film industry, has recently shared his decision to publicly request a car.


In an interview with Punch, Alapinni expressed his lack of shame and shed light on the challenges faced by actors in the industry. Responding to a question about wealthy actors, particularly females, Alapinni emphasized that each individual's path to success is different, and only they can explain how they attained their wealth.


Regarding the trend of actors requesting cars and other gifts from their fans, Alapinni acknowledged that some actors feel they have put in a great deal of work without reaping the benefits they deserve. He mentioned a personal experience where someone reached out to discuss helping him acquire a car after they had bought one for his friend. Alapinni expressed gratitude for the support and stated that he sees it as a form of appreciation rather than a negative act.


While the car has not been gifted yet, Alapinni remains hopeful that generous individuals will come forward to contribute. He mentioned that his non-biological son has been assisting in gathering funds, and even small contributions, like N200, are deeply appreciated as they represent the love and support he receives.


When asked if he finds the request for car gifts as a movie star shameful, Alapinni firmly stated that there is no shame in seeking such gifts. He believes that individuals should make use of what they have to fulfill their needs or desires. Alapinni highlighted that people's perception of movie stars as being wealthy is not always accurate, and there is nothing wrong with helping entertainers who bring joy and happiness. He also emphasized that if the government doesn't provide support, individuals will find alternative pathways for assistance. He concluded by suggesting that those who criticize such requests should put themselves in the shoes of those seeking help.


Alapinni's candid remarks shed light on the challenges faced by actors in the industry and their reasons for seeking assistance from fans and supporters.
