Nollywood actor, Segun Padonou Aina, better known as Segun Arinze, has offered his thoughts on the prevailing claims of homosexuality practised in Nollywood.
In a recent interview with Arise TV, the 59-year-old Badagry native affirmed that he is not a party to any conspiratorial sect that practices homosexuality in the Nigerian film industry.
In the words of the veteran film star, “I do not bend over, so I cannot react to it. Well if they do bend over, they should keep bending. That is their problem.”
Segun, who is also a voice over artist, acting coach, and singer, however, expressed his apathy towards the speculations that some of his industry colleagues may be indulging in the act.
