Actor Uzor Arukwe reacts to backlash over his ‘simp’ role in movie

Nollywood actor, Uzor Arukwe has reacted to the backlash over his role in Omoni Oboli’s new movie ‘Love In Every Word.’

Arukwe, who played the role of Odogwu Obiora, an affluent Igbo man who spends lavishly on his partner Chioma (played by Bambam), has been under fire for allegedly portraying Igbo men as “simps.”

While the movie has been praised by many, especially ladies as a perfect example of how men should treat their partners, some male viewers complained that the movie exaggerated men’s responsibilities to their partners.
