While calling out fellow veteran actors and actresses like Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, Genevieve Nnaji, Jim Iyke, and Emeka, he questioned the reason they have ‘turned their backs on the industry that made them famous.’
Speaking during an interview with Vanguard, he said;
As of 30 years ago, there were nothing like big stars. Everybody evolved. Those who chose to be behind the camera like myself as well as those who wanted to be in front of the camera.
“Nobody looked down on anybody. Everyone respected all that we were called to do with our talents. “But overtime, we have seen Nollywood that birthed great names being bastardized, abandoned and ignored even by those who were nobody then.
“That’s crux of this parley. Where are the people that Nollywood birthed? Some of them have become bigger than the industry that made them.
“I am calling out the Omotolas, the Genevieve’s, the Emeka Ikes and the Jim Iykes. I am also calling out all of them who benefitted from Nollywood to come and give back to the industry.
