Actor and producer, Emeka Ike has slammed AGN president, Ibinabo
Fibreisima and other Nollywood star for allegedly pulling Nollywood
down.
He listed producers who sleep with actresses as a prerequisite for offering them roles.
Speaking
to Journalists at the 2nd edition of the City People’s Political Award
held recently in Lagos, Emeka who wants to be AGN president said..
”There
are five people who have taken the laws of Nigerian movie industry into
their hands. They are Emma Ogugua, Murphy Stephen, Sunny McDon, Okey
Bakassi and Ifeanyi Dikeh.
These five people registered Actors
Guild of Nigeria has their personal business. No other individual can
come in.”My first concern is to clean up Nollywood, clean up AGN. Every
Nigerian youth want to act movies now, what future are we leaving for
them? Where are they going to write their names?”..
“The two
bedroom in Surulere where they would ask you to come and grace their
beds before they give you roles? Where they would make you join a g*y
group or le*sb group before they talk to you?
“Nollywood has gotten so bad that you must either strip and grace their beds or join the gay or lesbian group to belong.”
“The
people at the helm of affairs are the ones killing Nollywood. Some of
us the well-known actors don’t even know their rights. I dare say it
again, they don’t. Nobody can come out to challenge me.”
“We
built this industry with pain. Those who are at the helm of affairs now,
people don’t even know them in the movies. They just came in and messed
everything up.”
“Ibinabo has been acting as the president of AGN
for years now, but with her case as an ex-convict, do you have any
moral justification to recognize her as the president? The court case is
still on and the war continues.”
“That wasn’t the industry I
founded. My daughter will not to go into that industry tomorrow and they
would say she must sleep with one of them to get a role. Neither would
my son be a part of Nollywood that is full of immoralities.”
