Segun Arinze Opens Up on Feud with Emeka Ike
Veteran Nollywood actor Segun Arinze has confirmed that his long-standing feud with colleague Emeka Ike is officially over.
In an interview with QED.ng’s Olumide Iyanda, Arinze revealed that their conflict naturally faded away, and they now share a cordial relationship.
“Emeka Ike is a fantastic actor. We still talk and laugh about those things. The conflict ended naturally,” he stated.
Their feud dates back to 2009, when they clashed over the leadership of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN). Emeka Ike later secured a court injunction in 2011, forcing Arinze to step down as AGN president.
However, both actors have since moved on, putting their differences behind them. Arinze stressed the importance of letting go of grudges, saying:
“Hate is a burden. Travel light. What do I need that animosity for?”
With this reconciliation, fans are hopeful for a renewed friendship, and maybe even a Nollywood collaboration between the two stars!
