Nollywood actor and producer, Frederick Leonard, has called out movie crew members who have an unpleasant smell on their bodies while on set. This comes after his colleague, Victor Okpalan, complained on Instagram about some crew members coming on set smelling like "rat poison." Agreeing with Okpalan, Leonard took to the comment section and expressed his disappointment at movie crew members who neglect basic hygiene practices such as using deodorants.
In his comment, Leonard emphasized the importance of using deodorants and other oral hygiene products, especially for those who work long hours on set. He expressed that anyone with a functioning brain should know better than to come to work with an unpleasant smell that could disrupt the working environment.
He wrote, "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."
Leonard's comments have sparked mixed reactions from social media users, with some commending him for speaking up about hygiene on set, while others feel he should have addressed the issue privately with the crew members involved.
