When asked why a movie about homosexuality, the producer replied:
When I saw the National Assembly debate on Gay Marriage, I thought it was prophetic because at the time, I produced the movie, we hadn’t engaged ourselves constructively on how to address the issue of gay. We pretended then as if it didn’t exist in our society. Not knowing that it was gradually eating into the fabrics of the society.Continue reading...
So, one saw it at that time and set out to discuss it via the tube. I may sound very judgmental about it but I have no apologies whatsoever. Homosexual is an evil act that our culture and religion as Africans prohibits, and so, speaking against it as a film maker is to re-echo what my society has been saying about the ugly practice.”
“Today, I want the society to feel my purse differently, so that when the film is finally released into the market, they will be able to reconcile it with the Dickson Iroegbu they have known for several years. The world will also ascertain whether I’m a homosexual or not.

Isn't there one already?! Or was my friend high on paracetamol cuz she told me about a nollywood gay movie around october last year! Well d movie had gay scenes funny ones by d way.. Well according to d narrator
its obvious he is doing it 4 his own selfish reasons and not because he is against it. jus so dt we can say dt 4 him 2 mke such a movie den he isnt gay. sorry bt, no1 knws d truth except God, 1day fowl yansh go open 4 public, movie or no movie!!!
releasing a movie just to change people's perception about you wont make a friggin' difference. you are gay, or not gay, who cares?
So basically he's making this film for his own benefit and not really to condemn those in the act. If no one had accused him of being gay, he wouldn't have felt the need to make an anti-gay movie, especially as the law concerning homosexuality hadn't been passed.
who cares about UR sexual prefrence???and why trying hard 2 convince pple dat u are nt gay?. . . Mtcheewwww. .ATTENTION SEEKER. . . linda if u like nor post my comment oh. . .u hear?
Pls dont b ridiclus releasing gay bashing does not exonorate u from being label gay. Ok you are not gay but bisexual. :D
THIS ONE NA STORY??
THE PRODUCER EVEN LOOKS GAY!!!
PLEASE IF YOU DONT HAVE GIST, TELL US.
There have always been gays in Nigeria just like some people have been having sex with animals since the beginning of time. telling me to accept gays as regular folks is akin to telling me to accept stealing as a norm. It is wrong since it is the unnatural. I still don't understand why a man would want to stick his "suga stik" into a sh*t hole instead of a "sweet hole". That said, why does he want to make a movie to defend/justify himself? Thats one movie I wont watch! P.S Linda, My Offer is still open as per CHICAGO!!!
Just because you make a movie denouncing homosexuality does not mean you are not gay. Look at many disgraced US politicians, the most vocal men against homosexuality are the ones that we found out later had solicited the services of a male prostitute. This guy needs to get over himself. Naija's holier than thou attitude sickens me.
He has surely run out of ideas.why Gay movie.who will play the characters.i think his idea boarders on insanity.he must be prepared for 14 years in prison.i do not like Nollywood movies.the actors are idiots and primitive .They lack international exposure.
Homosexuality have been attracting too much lately, I think its high time Wε̲ start recognizing Ȋ̝̊̅† α̲̅πϑ how †̥☺ live with Ȋ̝̊̅†.
why so much effort to prove u're not a gay?
I naively thought it might be a movie promoting tolerance. Sigh. Let's stop fooling ourselves and being hypocrites in Nigeria and focus on what really matters: GOOD GOVERNANCE, ENDING CORRUPTION, DEVELOPMENT, SOCIAL VIOLENCE, ENDING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE etc
He is gay that's why.
Why do folks always bother about what people say about them! To thine own self be true!!
Now I understand why Halima Abubakar is leaving Kano!
What have you Linda got to say about it??? Olofofo girl or have you suddenly gone tongue tied?
deep stuff. Looking forward to seeing this movie.
Trust nigerians,Igbo pple n money,anytin tin dat happens,dey will use it to get money.lol.Sha gudluck to him
He's a bum i mean seriously?? Going all the way to make a movie condemning homosexuals just to tell people you are not Gay really Dickson?
I might also add that your narrow minded movie dont change nobody's perception about your sexuality.....you just exhibited your insecurity and stupidity.
Same Dickson embarrassed himself with the soldier child whatever project begging a foreign actor for 100mills and all of a sudden abandoned the project, his wife and family to pursue politics yet he failed again. I see a clueless man looking looking for some validation
RELAX DICKSON I'M SURE NO GAY DUDE FINDS YOU ATTRACTIVE lmao
soooo....he's basically doing it for selfish reasons.
Research shows that pp are usually defensive of what they are guilty of. He is in d closet. Fake life. N if u r so ignorant abt gays. Shut up. Being born gay is a psychologoical illness n gay pp shld b lvd n counseled nt jailed.unfortunately there are those who choose to be gay, that I don't like. As usual silly unresearched stuff
So, let me get this straight (scuse the pun), this idiot is making a movie so that people will not think he is gay? This is the reason why Nollywood has long since died and is a laughing stock in the real world of film.
Whatever your opinion is about homosexuality, making a film to exhibit your ignorance can only be in Nigeria where a corrupt Senate pass laws against gay marriage but can't counter terrorism.
I'm really tired of this assholes who use some imaginary pure moral African culture to promote hatred against gays.
Go fuck yourself Dickson Iroegbu, you're not a producer, you're an ignorant, prejudiced and probably gay asshole who's trying too hard to prove you're a real man. Shame on you.
Trust me you have lost your mind . Try and find the broken pieces.
Who cares whether u r gay or not. There is a history of the most vociferous anti-gay being closeted or repressed gays.
Great another ignorant idiotwith a fucking axe to grind. Lots of African cultures have had homosexuality for thousands of years including Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, and Bini but so many ignorant Nigerians continue repeating this rubbish.
Dry
Edgar Hoover...Head of CIA..go see the movie..closet gay..but hunted Gays down..
Hmmnnn! Example ?! Evidence?! I need them to back ur claim!
This guy is gay, pple always try to play defensive and camouflage when they want to hide who they really are, make a movie that has to do with how this act can be managed, handled and avoided not condemnation, and those senators that paaed that law, they are not serious, they won't pass a law on men over 40 chasing 14 year old girls and promiscuity, its homosexuality, I guess some of them are tired of paying their boyfriends. Linda plz post my comment biko.
No be so Uti Nwachukwu de condem gay people for BBA everyday na him we catch am de kiss man ( Dat him yellow boyfriend) for inside car d oda night....LMAO! 'Dick'son abeg no come set yasef up o!

Dickson is an idiot who thinks so highly of his intellectual ability. Always on Facebook sounding ignorant. He is a relic. Meanwhile, if Uti was abusing gay people, fire will burn him. He better wake up before Bryan Mr. Nigeria takes Alex from him

This Dickson guy is super ignorant.

=))º°˚˚˚°ºLmaoº°˚˚˚°º°º=))
This is the problem with Nollywood. The house just took a decision less than 2months ago and the dullard has written, produced & probably edited the film. Linda pls we humble, tke style beg the guy for us. He can do a film on the issue but he should research properly abegi
thats y nigeria will never progress. people r dying of oppression and starvation . u r focusing on homosexuality. y don't u make a movie about suffering of our people . instead of trying so hard to prove to d world you r not a fag. mtscheww
