Asaba, the capital city of Delta State in the South-South region of Nigeria is the new hub of Nollywood, the first and largest indie film industry in Africa known for the productions of thousands of home videos.
In Nollywood Rising: Welcome To Asaba, I said that the city has overtaken Lagos in the production of movies. And the highest paid actors (both male and female) in Asaba are among the highest paid and richest actors in Nollywood and the Nigerian film industry.
The highest paid actors in Asaba, include Jerry Amilo, Yul Edochie, Zubby Michael, Mercy Johnson Okojie, Ebele Okaro, Ngozi Ezeonu, Patience Ozokwor, Chika Ike, Tonto Dikeh, Destiny Etiko, Mike Ezuruonye, Ken Erics Ugo, Stephen Emeka Odimgbe, Chacha Eke and Regina Daniels.
These actors are being paid between N1 million and N5 million per movie. And they are earning more money than several of the A-List actors in Lagos city.
