We got part of the interview word for word, so please take a read:

“If you knock at their office and you can’t with them, you won't be allowed to act. Is it fair to tell a girl that ‘if I don’t sleep with you, you won’t get my favor ’ if God does that to us, where would we be today? This situation is a general norm. Ask the smallest artiste about my position on the situation. I have stopped productions severally because of this . That’s why sometimes they get issues with me.

Emeka Ike narrated an ugly incident he witnessed on a movie set, he said,

“There was a day I saw a girl crying at a corner of a movie set, her name is . She is a make-up artiste now because she has stopped acting (emphasis).

He continued, “She mentioned the name of the person. So because she can’t sleep with that man, she has to be , Kai! I have something against that. If a girl wants to sleep with you because you are a star or because she likes you, so be it. Don’t arm-twist someone. That is Abroad,you will go to jail for even suggesting it to her.»

Emeka Ike dished out an advice to Nollywood veterans,

«You need to be responsible and responsive to the younger people you have exposed acting to. You need to stand up and fight for them. Right now, they are interested in acting and there is no place to go to. They go to and they tell them . Is that what we made the industry for?»

Emeka Ike also had proof!

“I gave the lady her artiste fee that day. Go to and ask of , the make-up artiste. She will tell you about this story. That is why they don’t like me.”

What do you guys think: True or False?
