Nigerian filmmaker Freddie Leonard is under scrutiny for allegedly mistreating crew members during a movie shoot.
The accusations surfaced after filmmaker Stanley OnTop, known for his role in Junior Pope’s boat tragedy saga, publicly criticized Leonard on social media.
OnTop accused Leonard of engaging in promiscuous behavior and labeled him a “male Ashawo” (a male prostitute). He also claimed that Leonard mistreated crew members on set.
Supporting voices emerged online, with some individuals claiming firsthand knowledge of Leonard’s behavior. They described him as a bully who disrespects crew members during filming, earning him the nickname “film lord.”
The allegations have sparked conversations about professionalism and respect on film sets, prompting discussions about the treatment of crew members in the industry.
