Sharing the experience, Deyemi Okanlawon stated in the post that the motivation behind his marketing approach is ‘brokenness’.
Angered by the question, he affirmed that he blocked the troll for reminding him of the responsibilities on his neck as a man.
In his words, “Someone said ‘Deyemi you be senior man na, why you dey promote your film like say you be rookie’… for a brief second all the many ppl who depend on me flashed through my mind, I smiled and blocked the id*ot! 🙂.”
