    “We were sharing notes and laughing at you. I went to Rotterdam and the whole week talking about how you wanted to marry mw then you wanted £7000 to treat your mother fir her birthday. I refused and decided to send you, the pictures your send to my friends and the conversations. You then block me.

    I warned you though that the net is closing on you nigerian brothers. I have a list of high profile Nollywood actors who are involved in this. If Nollywood is not paying, stop living fake lives, find day jobs, work more. Wo.en abroad are tired of your sweet talks – but I must give you this nigerian guys – you know how to sweet talk. You got all the sweetest words.

    But we now know, its all about money swindling. Sad Mike, do not try UK, you will be disappointed. People like you give your dear country a bad reputation. Stop it. The net is closing in, you know why, because these governments are tired of bailing out women who you have duped of thousands of pounds and dollars.

    Ever heard of Interpol, yes you will know them soon brother. There are also some secret agencies. You will never know. I laughed at your picture, a very sweet talking handsome swindler. Sorry you failed with us pretty boy. I have your number and the texts and recorded all phone calls. Shame on you boy. Find a day job. The net is closing not just on you but your kinsman the world over.”

    Award-winning movie maker and actor, Kunle Afolayan, has tendered a heartfelt apology to his aggrieved colleague, Mike Ezuruonye, after sharing an incriminating screenshot which implyed he was fraudulent.

    According to Kunle, the actor had misunderstood as he never intended to put him in the bad light.

    “While I did not see my innocent reaction to an indicting post by a random IG follower as capable of further hurting my friend and colleague, Mike Ezuruonye, to be labelled a tribalist in retaliation is very unfortunate,”
    “Honestly, I was misunderstood,”
    “My reaction, which was rather spontaneous, was to chide the IG follower who appeared to be reporting the actor to me. And I merely asked (in Yoruba) how all of that was my business. It was like saying ‘when did I become an officer of the law’. Obviously, my colleague took the context of my post wrongly and angrily accused me of tribalism.
    “I do not know what gave birth to such misrepresentation. However, while I am famous for living and promoting everything that my tradition stands for as a Yoruba man, I have maintained a mutual friendship with people of other extractions, Igbos especially. It is therefore not in the interest of both of us (Mike Ezuruonye and I) to politicise our emotion with tribal colouration. For me, this is undeserving of our other friends, and goes to offend the sensibility of genuine relationships we have each cultivated with people of other tribes.”
    On how he has been promoting inter-tribal relationships through his works, Afolayan says the facts are there for all to see.
    “The ideals are reflected in the themes and plots of my movies, some of which include; The Figurine, The Bridge, Phone Swap, Omugwo, and Roti.”
