This is what I cannot even explain. Some time ago, a senior colleague of mine invited me to be part of his new production. For over 15 years, he has not shot a single movie as things were really rough for him.
He was staging a comeback and needed my support. I have known him for several years and as an undergraduate, storming Lagos those days to attend auditions, he was one of the foremost directors in
Nollywood then. There was no way I could have refused to support his return to the industry.
That was how I ended up starring in that movie. To win my sympathy, he narrated how a marketer once rejected his film simply because he did not feature regular faces in the film. I appeared in few scenes in the movie which was shot in three days. I have no idea whatsoever regarding what lewed scenes he had previously shot.
In fact, I’m yet to understand why he decided to shoot such movie. I think he took his desperation too far. I’m surprised that he used my face to promote pornography because the very day I saw the movie jacket, I knew something was wrong with it.
There was no way I could have been part of the movie if I knew from the out set that what he has shot was something close to an adult film.
