'I am quitting Nollywood temporarily' - Emeka Ike

Nollywood actor, Emeka Ike, has said he's leaving Nollywood temporarily to strategize. Speaking to an Encomium reporter exclusively on Sunday July 22nd, the actor said:
"I have not quit Nollywood in the real sense of the word. What I did was to withdraw all my movies from the market, and I mean all the movies that are related with Emeka Ike...and the reason is not far fetched. I am angry with what is going on in the industry. My conscience would not allow me to go on with the decay in the industry. So, I feel that was the best thing to do, to dissociate myself from the problem and stand out! So, henceforth, any Nollywood movie would not involve Emeka Ike. Rather, I want to market all my movies on the label of Emeka Ike Production. If you want to deal with me as an actor, you have to work with me under the label. That clearly separates me from Nollywood

  12. emeka nwannem. there really is a lot of decay in the industry (homosexuality, adultery, shitty actors,directors, scripts).anyway he has money so it won't affect him. haha this guy is crazy! he's not even a good actor sef but i like his honesty.

  17. 'If you want to deal with me as an actor, you have to work with me under the label. That clearly separates me from Nollywood". He needs to break it down. I sense ego and greed.

    ReplyDelete
  18. quitting?ahhhh i cant laugh...has he been acting lately in d first place..mehn naija can lie..hollywood don quit am so he should just shut up...SMH

    ReplyDelete
  19. So, if dem dey talk about actors, dis one too go open him mouth call himself actor, abi? Dude, one of the problems with Nollywood is that people like you are in it. With your exit(?), Nollywood would be a lot less a joke. And by the way, stop feeling like you are all that cos you ain't.

    ReplyDelete
  20. A pity Emeka Ike, I won't miss you because I can't even stand your face in any movie. So all the best.

      Besides,his fellow actors have turned into corrupt and big time bitches when they see money. They sell their birthright. Emeka big ups to u ma men! Wish u all d best big boy!

"IF U WANT TO DEAL WITH ME"?? like really?...PALEASEE...

    Nigerians can hate sha, very angry people. But if you look at what he is saying, he had a point. The industry is deteriorating, with the likes of all this porno wannabe shit, homosexuality, cheap dressing, etc. i no blame him. It's why a lot of our favorites don't even act anymore

    1. Lmao @ very angry people. This blog too funny I swear. How won't they be angry. This is the direct result of bottled up anger against bad leaders causing terrible living conditions. As for Emeka Ike; he was right. But this is just a clear case of RIGHT MESSAGE, WRONG VESSEL. If someone like Omosexy said this now, enhen.

  76. ike whts the probs with nollywood? but as long as u keep making movies in 9ja and its also being markted here dont u tink ur still going to be under nollywood? the best thing for u is to just go to the sahara desarts and start up a movie industry thr, u can call it "Ikewood" if u lyk.

    ReplyDelete
  77. mschewww is he not still in Nigeria and acting or directing or whatever? He should just leave totally until they "sort" their mess out. And while you're at it Emeka, please take that new curly haired 'can't act to save his life, pretends like he's sexy' dude and Desmond too whose foray into directing has been a disaster so far in my opinion.

  80. He has no point whatsoever. Emeka Ike is not even a good actor, no1 and i mean no1 wants him in their movies, hence he produces the movies he makes to stay relevant.

    Im happy he took this move, he had better go look for a job

  84. this doesn't make sense to me. i think he's beefing nollywood and those that are heading/running the organization. separating himself? hmmm not sure if it's a smart move. but in life u have to take risks...so go ahead emeka! and all the best

    ReplyDelete
  85. Emeka Ikeji - since you have not been acting, nobody has missed you so I don't know why you needed to make this announcement. Abeg, roll your eyes as you always do and keep on walking jare!

  86. Av not laughed this hard in a while sha.Nigerians are too funny.but please let's try to put ourselves in his shoes.if he comes here to read this am sure he will feel very bad .Rather than say he's a bad actor we cansayhe's s acting skills need improvement.

  87. this guy value his kind of person n that is a good one 4 me the industry sucks being a celebrty u ar likely engage to do lots of bad things drugs, homo, les, fraud, rituals, lots of them the reason is cuz of money these ar cheap low cnscience pple, n pple who dnt c any bad in what thy do ar cheap as a persn nd ar likely to do thsame emeka ike has a conscience n it wont allw hm to b a part of it so go tke a leav broda do what u thnk is ryt i wish u well

  102. Truth be said Emeka is not a good screen actor. He would probably do better on stage where everything is exaggerated. His on-screen presence is nill. The only movie he acted in that I liked is where he was a teacher co-starring Genevieve Nnaji.

We know u are all a cluster of jealous FAILURES called STARS. ..my ass. Heared he's up togreater fings in ghana... ENDORESMENT OPURTUNITIES?... ON UR MARKS! set!...Glo!

  114. How many of Nollywood acts have been able to sell the nuber of jackets Emeka Ike has been able to in the history of the industry. You know many of these actors are illiterates which explains why they can't have Emeka Ike's kind of courage.
