Jim Iyke, a popular actor in Nollywood, has addressed the recent rumors that he converted to Islam.

On Wednesday, it was reported that the actor had converted to the Islamic religion.

As a result of this response, several Muslims welcomed him into their faith.

But in response to the rumors, Jim Iyke posted a video on his Instagram page, in which he said unequivocally that he had no intention of ever converting to Islam. ( https://www.instagram.com/p/CeS64h3j4jI/?hl=en )

According to him, the images that went viral and were the impetus for the accusation were taken from a movie that he is presently filming in Ghana.

“Let me quickly address the elephant in the room and go back to what I do best. I feel it necessary to address the rumour making the rounds lately.

”I made a movie in Ghana and it’s a movie about religious fanatic, someone took a picture from that movie and claimed I converted my faith.

”I respect all religions and I have no intention of ever converting my faith. I’m totally committed to my faith. I don’t understand why someone will do these but there is a certain line that you not be crossed,” he said.

I knew from the onset that this rumour was spread and spearheaded by illiterate religious bigots, to promote the authenticity of their religion. I find such rumours not surprising because, adhertants have proven to have pechant for misinformation
