Segun Arinze, the ace actor, has shared his thoughts on the long-standing claims of homosexuality in the Nigerian movie industry.
Addressing the allegations in an interview with Arise TV, Arinze stressed that he does not engage in homosexual activities.
The 59-year-old movie star said those who “bend over are adults and they have a right to do whatever they want to do”.
Arinze expressed his preference for living a straightforward life, focusing on his business and being a professional
“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. They are adults and they have a right to do whatever they want to do. It is none of my business,” he said.
“I am not going to concern myself with that. I do not like those lash backs, I like living my life straightforward, doing my business and being a professional that I am.”
Born Segun Aina, the actor started his career professionally as a singer. It was singing that first shot him into prominence. His debut album ‘Dream’ was however not particularly a commercial success.
Arinze became very popular after his role in ‘Domitillia’, the 1996 movie. He has since then featured in over 100 movies.
