Famous Nollywood actor, Jim Iyke, has expressed comfort with public perceptions about him. The actor in a recent Instagram post on his page, noted that he will not compromise his principles, even if it means being misunderstood.
Jim Iyke explained that his decision to stand by his values has helped him shape his career. I have grown extremely comfortable being the villain in some people’s stories. Many times, the lines between wrong and right blur in these narratives. I am happy as always to dispense with my side of it. My recourse is to distance myself from the grandstanding and theatrics.
“Sometimes, I am quick to build a wall before compromising my ideologies and principles. It is what forged who I am. It’s what inspires what I am to become.
“One thing is certain: you must trust people to be who they are. The moon will turn red before I’m who I am not. I am light to many. Others, I am what their insecurities amplify. I’m hated for it. I’m loved for it.”
