Fast-rising Nollywood star, Nkem Ike, stated during a recent interview that segxwal harassment does not exist in Nigerian movie industry.

Actress Nkem Ike, who made her debut in the industry in 2009, have never met a man or a woman who was segxwally harassed at gunpoint in Nollywood.

The actress who has starred in quite a number of flicks such as ‘Aso Ebi Girl’ and ‘Enemies in Progress claimed she hasn’t had experience such harassment maintained that if any exec should ask an actress out, the proper action to take is to walk out.

Nkem Ike said: "If a producer asks you out, it is your right to walk out on him. It is not as if a gun is pointed to your head. For me, I have not been in such a situation before. But maybe it has to do with the way I started. Andy Amaechi found me and gave me my first role and it continued from there. Most of the times I played major roles, so maybe that is why I didn’t experience such. I used to say that I have never seen a man or woman who said they used gun to harass him or her in the industry."

"I have never experienced harassment either. if someone asks you out you simply decline and go your way. Those who think the easiest way to get roles and become a star is trading their bodies should realise that it dies not work in that way, Marketers are out for business and naturally feature those who have market value and help them recoup their value afterwards. Nobody has complained that he or she was harassed at gunpoint. segxwal harassment does not exist in Nollywood the way it is usually painted," she said.
