Popular Nollywood actor cum movie producer, Afeez Owo, has reacted to a public apology of his colleague, Yemi Solade, for assaulting him at a movie set.
Naijaonpoint recalls that Solade had, during an interview, tendered a public apology to Afeez Owo for slapping him on a movie set.
Recounting the incident, Solade said he became infuriated at Afeez, the production manager at the movie set, for making a false accusation against him, which resulted in a slap.
Expressing regret, Solade explained that he has also discussed the matter with some of their colleagues.
Reacting during a recent appearance on the African A-List podcast, Afeez accepted the apology, stressing he will let go of the incident because Solade is his senior brother.
He said, “After seeing his apology, I let go of the incident. Even if he did not apologize, he is not at fault because it is like when an elder brother beat his younger brother. Even if the older one is at fault, the younger brother will be ask to apologize to the senior.
“I was the production manager then and he was an actor. As a production manager i’m to cater for the actors and crew members well-being. When we were leaving the Ibadan location to another location at a Fulani resettlements area, I informed everybody to tell me their needs so that I can buy them along but it seems Uncle Solade didn’t understand me too well and slapped me when he was hungry.”
