Emeka Ike exposes producers who sleep with actresses for roles


Nollywood actor/producer, Emeka Ike has accused some producers of allegedly pulling Nollywood down and sleeping with actresses in exchange for roles.

Speaking to Journalists at the 2nd edition of City People political award which held recently in Lagos, Emeka who want to be AGN president said: 

"There are five people who have taken the laws of Nigeria movie industry into thier hands. They are, Emma Ogugua, Murphy Stephen, Sunny McDon, Okey Bakassi and Ifeanyi Dikeh. These five people registered Actors Guild of Nigeria as their personal business. No other individual can come in."

My first concern is to clean up Nollywood, clean up AGN. Every Nigeria 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 will ask you to come and grace their beds before they give you roles? Where they will make you join a gay or lesbian group before they talk to you?

"We built this industry with pain. Those who are at the helm of affairs now, people don't even know them in movies. They just came in and messed everything up."

"Ibinabo has been acting as AGN president for years now, but with her case as ex-convict, do you have any moral justification to recognize as the president? The court case is still on the war continues."

"That wasn't the industry i founded." He said.
