Nollywood actor, Jim Iyke, may be looking for more controversy, going
by his recent comments about Nollywood being too boring and
predictable.
He said this during an interview with Punch Newspapers in which he
described the industry as too easy, which was the reason he left for a
while.
In his words, "Nothing was challenging anymore. It was too easy and
too perpetual. It was too boring and too predictable.
" I had no room to pursue or hone other skill sets I had. I didn't
have time for…hobbies, family, and friends, personal and social
advancements. Something had to give! After all, I was the guy that
made 38 films in a year.'
He also spoke about his relationship with Ghanaian actress, Nadia
Buari, who he says is a solid and down-to-earth woman.
Addressing their rumoured split, Iyke says, "We have embraced who we
are and learnt to create our own world and expectations. We have ups
and downs like every other couple. We have our strength and weakness
as well. At the end of the day, rumours of break ups and make ups
ought to abound. It really doesn't matter.
" A relationship is a continuous work. Those that give up, perhaps
weren't committed enough. Those that go in for the long haul, suck up
and square up to the variables life throws at them.
" The people that judge harshly are obviously the ones that live far
from their desired lives. We just live the best way we know how and
leave the rest to the author and finisher of all things", he added.
