Comedienne, Taaooma responds after being called out by filmmaker over N1.5m gig
Popular Instagram comedienne, Maryam Apaokagi also known as Taaooma, has replied the allegation leveled against her by a filmmaker simply identified as Ola.
Ola, with handle @Olaondeck on Twitter, said a client allegedly paid the video content creator the sum of 1.5 million naira to do a short video promotion for his brand, but the client didn’t like the work on completion.
The young man further claimed that owing to Taaooma’s “Take it or leave it” motto, she refused to even give a little refund to the client.
In his words:
“Paid Taaoma 1.5m.
“She shot video and the client doesn’t like the work done. and her position is TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT.
“We are not asking for a full refund, but at least a sense of concession will go a long way.
“1.5m gone like that.
And you guys wonder how Maraji fell off? For those of you asking “What did Maraji do?”.
“Maraji didn’t do anything in this situation and she’s a fantastic story teller.
“However, ask anyone who has worked with her and her team, she’s not the easiest person to work with.
“Hence the reason for the honest comparison.”
Responding, Taaooma’s management described the claims as utterly false, adding that she has never had any dealings with Ola before.
