Veteran Nollywood actor Segun Arinze has confirmed that his long-standing feud with colleague Emeka Ike is now a thing of the past.
In an interview with Qed.ng’s Olumide Iyanda, Arinze revealed that their dispute had naturally come to an end.
“Emeka Ike is a fine actor. We still talk and laugh about those things. The conflict ended naturally,” he said.
The feud dates back to 2009, when both actors clashed over leadership in the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN). In 2011, Ike obtained a court injunction against the guild’s elections, leading to Arinze stepping down as AGN president.
However, after years of tension, the two actors have reportedly reconciled.
Reflecting on their past, Arinze emphasized the importance of moving on, stating, “Hate is a burden. Travel light. What do I need that animosity for?”
