Emeka Ike, though controversial to many people, is seen by few others as a very
blunt and fearless actor. He is one of the actors who has been in the movie
industry in Nigeria and still wields much influence.
“If you knock at their office and you can’t sleep 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 favour?’ if God does that to us, where would we be today?
"They go to Ajao and they tell them open your legs, is that what we made the
industry for?"
In a chat with Nigerian Films, Emeka opened up on why he’s hated by some movie
producers and directors in the industry. He said that his stand on not allowing up
and coming actresses to be used for séx-for-movie roles has made him to be
hated in the film industry in Nigeria.
He added that, “This situation is a general norm. Ask the smallest artiste about my
position on the situation. I have stopped productions severally because of this
(séxual harassment). That’s why sometimes they get issues with me."
Emeka 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 Esther. She is a
make-up artiste now because she has stopped acting.
“I approached her and asked why she was crying. She was lamenting like a girl
who has just lost her mother. She told me that ‘look at the girl going with my
script, that ugly animal. The producer said if I can’t sléep with him, I can’t get the
script.’
“She mentioned the name of the person. So because she can’t sleep with that man,
she has to be marginalized, 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 rapé . Abroad, they will go to jail for even suggesting it
to her...
“I gave the lady her artiste fee that day . Go to Enugu and ask of Esther, the make-
up artiste. She will tell you about this story. That is why they don’t like me.”
