Concerned about the growing sex scenes in Nigeria’s film industry, Nollywood actor, clergyman, and filmmaker Mike Bamiloye has written an open letter to his colleagues.
He chastised actors and actresses who kiss and act in erotic films in an open letter on his Instagram page.
According to him, the majority of his colleagues act in such scenes for the financial and social benefits.
Further, the sexagenarian stated that such scenes have resulted in many broken marriages and bred distrust between couples.
Mount Zion Television’s founder also accused directors and producers who encourage such behavior of being lustful.
The 62-year-old playwright wrote:
