Star actor Jim Iyke has debunked claims that his attack on the fellow actor, Uche Maduagwu was stunt for his new film, Bad Comments.
premiernews in online interview with Iyke, said he was angry with the way Maduagwu was going about painting people black.
He said: “I have spent almost two decades in this business for somebody to rubbish my efforts. I went there to talk to him more like a brother but unfortunately what happened, happened.”
Continuing, Iyke said he didn’t behave as a mature and elderly colleague despite Madagwu’s libellous claims about him.
“Though many people blamed him for his actions but I also did not behave well as an older brother and a public figure. We have forgiven ourselves. I told him to use his talents positively. I decided to go on my own to register my displeasure about his actions towards me.”
Iyke reiterated that the incident wasn’t a stunt for his film. “It wasn’t a stunt for my forthcoming movie. Those people he is busy disparaging can turn around to assist him tomorrow.
“I am somebody’s father, husband, brother, uncle, and so on. I have so many people who are dependent on me. I have for companies with over 50 people working directly and indirectly it is not nice to bring down people for no reason,” he said.
